Shelton A. Gunaratne has made significant contributions to various fields, including renal medicine, communication research, and systems theory. In recent articles, Gunaratne's work on partial lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) deficiency sheds light on an extremely rare cause of nephrotic syndrome in childhood, highlighting the importance of identifying atypical presentations in medical diagnostics. Additionally, their research on communication theory advocates for a paradigm shift towards a systems view of life, emphasizing the need to de-westernize science and incorporate Eastern perspectives. Furthermore, Gunaratne's work explores the intersection of systems theory and global communication, with a focus on entropy and its implications for world systems and developing countries.
