Program Description
The Infectious Disease Program concentrates on microbial pathogenesis and microbial immunity, on the molecular, cellular, and organismal levels, and is open to M.D. and M.D./Ph.D scientists. It is located on the floor adjacent to that of the Microbial Pathogenesis Program, to facilitate scientific interactions among the faculty and staff of both programs. Both programs provide access to well-equipped BSL3 and ABSL3 facilities. While physician-scientists working on risk group 3 pathogens are encouraged to apply, we are particularly interested in developing areas of research that will complement and extend existing research programs in Medical and Molecular Parasitology, Microbial Pathogenesis, Molecular Oncology and Immunology, and Cell Biology, as well as the emerging program in Genetics, Genomics, and Proteomics. Recruitment for the program is led by Dr. Joel Ernst.
