Description: Dr. Frank Maldarelli received his Ph.D. from the City University of New York and his M.D. from Mount Sinai School of Medicine. After completing his residency in internal medicine at The Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital, New York, he joined the Laboratory of Molecular Microbiology at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) as a Medical Staff Fellow with Malcolm A. Martin and Klaus Strebel. Dr. Maldarelli joined the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in 1998 as Head of the In Vivo Biology Group in the HIV Drug Resistance Program (DRP). Representing the clinical research arm of the DRP, he has extensive collaborations between the DRP in Frederick and both the NCI HIV and AIDS Malignancy Branch and the NIAID AIDS clinical research program in Bethesda.

Dr. Maldarelli is an Attending Physician in the NIAID/CCMD HIV service, and is currently a faculty member of the International Society of Infectious Diseases HIV Training Program, NIH Infectious Disease Consult Service, and Center for Bio-Medical Communications Infectious Disease Board Review Course, and a lecturer in the Washington D.C. community outreach PACT Program. With colleagues in the In Vivo Biology Group he is engaged in research on four clinical studies projects seeking to elucidate mechanisms underlying the emergence of HIV resistance in vivo, the dynamics of infection under treatment, and the role of resistance mutations in the efficacy and failure of subsequent treatments.

NCI’s Center for Cancer Research (CCR) Grand Rounds is a weekly lecture series addressing current research in clinical and molecular oncology.
