Isabel Rodriguez-Barraquer, MD, PhD, MHS

Assoc Professor In Residence
M_MED-ZSFG-AIDS

My research focuses in applying novel epidemiological and statistical methods to understand the dynamics of infectious diseases and inform control interventions. While I am interested in infectious diseases generally, most of my work has focused on understanding shifts in the epidemiology of vector borne diseases including dengue, leishmaniasis, chikungunya, malaria and Zika.
