Our mission is to design and conduct cutting-edge research, to deliver outstanding clinical care, and to provide the highest quality education and training in infectious diseases (ID). We have 50 full-time faculty members, and our division includes basic, translational, clinical and epidemiological research programs, inpatient and ambulatory clinical services at NewYork Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center, and the ID fellowship Training Program.
Our main laboratory research projects focus on antibiotic and antifungal drug development, bacterial pathogenesis, HIV and other retroviruses, influenza, malaria/babesia, and tuberculosis. Major clinical research projects investigate antimicrobial drug resistance, hepatitis, HIV/AIDS, hospital epidemiology/infection control, human papillomavirus (HPV), respiratory viruses, and transplantation/oncology ID. Furthermore, in collaboration with the Center for Global Health, we have clinical, research and training programs in Brazil, Haiti, and Tanzania, with full-time faculty and fellows onsite. Research interests include diarrheal illnesses, HIV/AIDS, HTLV-1, leprosy, malaria, leishmaniasis, schistosomiasis, and tuberculosis.
Our clinical programs provide exceptional care for patients in the greater New York City area and beyond. Weill Cornell ID Associates houses several outpatient programs, including general ID consultations, travel medicine, transplant/oncology ID, general ID fellows clinic, and Outpatient Parenteral Antimicrobial Therapy (OPAT).
The HIV/AIDS Program provides care to over 3,000 persons living with HIV at our Center for Special Studies. Providers conduct clinical and translational research in our HIV Clinical Trials Unit.
More than 22,000 inpatient consultations and 13,000 outpatient encounters take place each year at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, a large 867-bed tertiary care hospital, NewYork-Presbyterian/Lower Manhattan, and our affiliated institution, the Hospital for Special Surgery.
