Infectious diseases are among the most critical health problems for people living in both the developed and developing world. From HIV and malaria to emerging pathogens like Ebola to Zika virus, ID faculty strive to tackle current and rapidly evolving public health threats.
The Division of Infectious Diseases at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is an internationally recognized leader in infectious disease research, training, and clinical care. We are committed to a broad range of clinical care, research and teaching activities in North Carolina and around the world on four continents. ID faculty and staff are extensively involved in prevention programs – from community outreach to vaccine development. Learn about the history of our division.
