Meet our Pediatric Infectious Diseases Faculty

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Fellowship Training Program has been continuously funded for over 20 years by a training grant from the National Institutes of Health. The mission of the program is to train future Infectious Diseases Pediatricians for productive and rewarding careers in research and patient care.

Research within the Division encompasses bench to bedside studies of major bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases. Members of our faculty are actively engaged in studies of basic microbial pathogenesis, clinical and molecular epidemiology, mechanisms of antimicrobial drug resistance, and the development of new drugs and vaccines.
