I joined the faculty of the Section of Infectious Diseases in 2013. I am an Associate Professor of Medicine with a secondary appointment in the Department of Surgery (Transplant). I am the Medical Director of Transplant Infectious Diseases Program. I obtained my bachelor of science in Chemistry at the University of Philippines Diliman and my medical degree at the University of Philippines College of Medicine. I completed internal medicine residency at Seton Hall Graduate Medical Education. Afterward, I did fellowships in Geriatric Medicine at the University of Michigan, Infectious Diseases at the University of Louisville, and Transplant Infectious Diseases at Cleveland Clinic Foundation. I am an active member of the American Society of Transplantation (AST) and the AST Infectious Diseases Community of Practice (IDCOP). I am currently the Chair of the AST IDCOP Older Adult Working Group which is focused on clinical outcomes of transplant-related infections in older adults. In addition, I am currently the Member-at-large of the AST ID COP and Councilor of the Transplant Infectious Diseases Section of The Transplantation Society. I am also an active member of the Infectious Diseases Society of America and currently a Committee Member of the Clinical Affairs Committee and Digital Advisory Group. In 2020, I completed my 3-year term as a Member-at-large of the Organ Procurement Transplant Network Ad hoc Disease Transmission Advisory Committee. I am involved in the clinical teaching of medical students, residents, and fellows. Due to growing interest in Transplant Infectious Diseases, we created a curriculum specific for 2nd year ID fellows who want to pursue a career in this field. Since 2015, we had 6 fellows who completed a 2nd-year Clinical Track focused on Transplant Infectious diseases. My research is focused on clinical outcomes of transplantation in people living with HIV and older adults. I have participated in several multi-center studies, including clinical trials. I am the primary investigator of the HOPE Act study at Yale and several multi-center clinical trials of novel anti-viral agents for immunocompromised hosts.
