معرفی
Patrick Cudahy is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases at Yale University School of Medicine, with additional affiliation as Faculty at the Yale Institute for Global Health. His work bridges clinical infectious disease medicine with advanced epidemiological and genomic research methodologies.
Dr. Cudahy's educational background includes a BA in Molecular and Cell Biology from UC Berkeley (2005), MD from Medical College of Wisconsin (2010), Internal Medicine residency at Stanford University (2013), Infectious Diseases fellowship at Yale University (2017), and an MSc in Epidemiology from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (2023). He is board certified in both Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases by the American Board of Internal Medicine.
His research focuses on HIV and tuberculosis co-infection, with particular emphasis on improving treatment outcomes through biomarker investigation and within-host tuberculosis strain diversity analysis. Working extensively in South Africa and other high-burden settings, Dr. Cudahy employs genomic and spatial analytical approaches to understand tuberculosis transmission dynamics. His work integrates molecular epidemiology with clinical outcomes research to address critical gaps in TB control strategies, particularly in HIV-endemic regions.
Analysis of Dr. Cudahy's recent publications reveals a strong focus on tuberculosis genomics, transmission dynamics, and the intersection of HIV and TB. His work spans diagnostic development, treatment optimization for drug-resistant tuberculosis, and implementation science approaches to improve TB care in resource-limited settings. The research consistently applies advanced genomic and spatial analytical methods to address practical clinical and public health challenges in high-burden TB settings.
Dr. Cudahy is an active educator, teaching courses including 'Tackling the Big Three: Malaria, TB, and HIV in Resource-Limited Settings' and contributing to clinical medicine instruction across multiple Yale programs. He serves as a reviewer for the American Journal of Tropical Medicine & Hygiene and Chest journal. His collaborative research extends across multiple international settings including South Africa, Malawi, Moldova, and Taiwan, working with major research groups including the Ted Cohen Lab which focuses on TB and HIV control.
