In Luria’s research, two important developments was his assertion that the forms of connections were basic to the development of verbal connections in childhood, and his psychophysiologic study of the affective processes.
In the latter study, Luria’s attempts to eliminate some of the difficulties inherent in Jung’s association experiments, to make it more objective, resulted in the formation of a new model of experimentation; the combined motor method.

In collaborazione con il biofisico tedesco Max Delbrük, Salvador Luria mise a punto la procedura sperimentale e i metodi quantitativi per stabilire l’origine di colonie batteriche resistenti a virus.
Luria dimostrò che l’acquisizione della resistenza ai virus da parte di batteri è la conseguenza di un processo di selezione darwiniana che favorisce dei mutanti preesistenti.
Luria dimostrò quindi che anche i virus batteriofagi vanno incontro a mutazioni spontanee, che li mettono in condizione di svilupparsi in batteri resistenti.

"Luria's work with Max Delbrück brought bacterial viruses to the center stage of genetics research in the 1940s, and he helped develop bacterial genetics into one of the roots of molecular biology as we know it today," said Donald A.B. Lindberg, M.D., director of the National Library of Medicine.
By 1938, Luria, as a Jew, was barred from academic research fellowships in Italy as that nation increasingly aligned itself with Nazi Germany.

Watson was invited to join the "Phage Group," begun in 1943 by Salvador Luria and Max Delbrück as a way to bring together like minded scientists interested in bacterial viruses known as bacteriophage, or simply "phage." According to Watson, studying phage replication was essentially watching "naked genes in action." (Watson, Passion for DNA).
Watson worked directly under Luria, his doctoral advisor at Indiana University, who was 17 years his senior and treated him like a son.
Because of Luria’s reputation for being impolite and arrogant, he had only one student at the time–an idyllic situation for Watson.
