Maria A Correa is an Epidemiologist 3 and Manager in the Connecticut Emerging Infections Program at the Yale School of Public Health's Department of Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases. She holds an MPH (2020) and a BS in Biology (Yale University) with research expertise in infectious disease epidemiology, healthcare-associated infections, and vector-borne pathogens.
Her work focuses on surveillance systems for microbial diseases, including candidemia trends during pandemics and Clostridioides difficile diagnostics. She has contributed to studies on Aedes aegypti mosquitoes' microbiome and autophagy mechanisms influencing arbovirus infections. Earlier research included fish species taxonomy and behavioral ecology.
Correa's research integrates clinical epidemiology with molecular biology, addressing public health challenges through population-level surveillance and mechanistic studies. Her recent work highlights the evolving epidemiology of fungal infections amid healthcare system changes and the pandemic's impact.
Her articles span microbial disease epidemiology, vector biology, and taxonomic research, reflecting interdisciplinary collaboration between public health and basic science.
