SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds- Dr. Jonathan Parr presents: Emergence of Diagnostic- and Drug-Resistant Malaria
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Parr studies the molecular epidemiology of infectious diseases. He is broadly interested in applying cutting-edge molecular and genomic tools to solve problems faced by marginalized populations across the globe. His work has focused on malaria in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other sites\, but he has recently expanded his portfolio to include translational studies of viral hepatitis and syphilis. Dr. Parr is a founding member of the Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Ecology Lab at ºÚÁÏÍø (IDEEL\, www.ideelresearch.org). He has collaborated with the World Health Organization on efforts to improve malaria diagnosis and treatment and is as an Associate Editor for Healthcare: The Journal of Delivery Science and Innovation. During the pandemic\, he has served as co-director of ºÚÁÏÍø infectious diseases’ inpatient COVID-19 services. Dr. Parr and his work have been featured in the New York Times\, Washington Post\, CNN\, and other media outlets.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds- Dr. Jeanne Marrazzo presents: "Opportunities and Challenges in the Infectious Disease Field: A Perspective from NIAID"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Marrazzo is the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at the U.S. National Institutes of Health\, where she oversees a $6.3 billion budget that supports research to advance the understanding\, diagnosis\, and treatment of infectious\, immunologic\, and allergic diseases.  Prior to taking that position in 2023\, she was the C. Glenn Cobbs Endowed Chair and Director of the Division of Infectious Diseases at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Heersink School of Medicine (UAB). She is a Fellow of the American College of Physicians and of the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)\, and was Treasurer of the IDSA from 2021-2023\, having served on the board since 2018. She was Chair of the American Board of Internal Medicine Council from 2015-2018. \nDr. Marrazzo has a broad research portfolio that includes the relationships between the vaginal microbiome and female reproductive tract infections\, HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis\, hormonal contraception\, and risk of STI/HIV acquisition. She led UAB’s participation in the RECOVER trial\, funded by NIH to study post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection\, and a large clinical trial of the meningococcal Group B vaccine rMenB+OMV NZ (Bexsero) to prevent gonococcal infection. She chaired the Biomedical Science Committee of the HIV Prevention Trial Network\, the group tasked with integrating the biomedical science agenda across numerous clinical trials of antiretroviral prevention agents. She was also a Co-PI of the NIH-funded Infectious Disease Clinical Research Consortium that leads the Vaccine Treatment and Evaluation Units as well as NIH-funded STI clinical trials. She has been a leading voice in educating colleagues\, the community\, and the media during the COVID-19 pandemic.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds- Dr. Gwenn A. Garden presents: "Update on Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis and Treatment"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Garden’s Alzheimer’s disease (AD) research includes studies of the regulation of the inflammatory response in AD\, as well as pathogenic molecular cascades contributing to neuronal degeneration in AD. She aims to collaborate with other researchers in order to translate her laboratory findings into the setting of research using human tissues\, human stem cells\, human serum and CSF samples\, and potentially human patients. \nDr. Garden’s Alzheimer’s disease (AD) research includes studies of the regulation of the inflammatory response in AD\, as well as pathogenic molecular cascades contributing to neuronal degeneration in AD.
