Bio
For the last 25 years as faculty in the Department of Infectious Diseases at MD Anderson Cancer Center, his group has used innovative mini-host (flies) models, murine models, and in vitro platforms, and provided insights on various aspects of fungal pathobiology, immunopathogenesis, resistance, mode of action of antifungals, antifungal drug discovery, novel diagnostics, fungal pharmacotherapy, and immunotherapy. In regard to clinical research, he has published extensively on epidemiology, risk factors, prevention, diagnosis, prognosis, and management of virtually all opportunistic yeast and mold infections afflicting patients with malignancy and/or cell transplantation. These efforts were complimented by achievements in developing careers of young investigators through dedicated mentoring and education, and life-saving patient care. Kontoyiannis is the recipient of many institutional, national, and international awards such as the 2004 American Society for Microbiology award for Outstanding Research in the Pathogenesis of Microbial Diseases (mentor), The Billy Cooper Memorial award from The Medical Mycology Society of Americas (MMSA, 2013), The Drouhet Medal from the European Confederation of Medical Mycology (ECMM, 2015), Littman award from the Mycology Society of NY (2016), emeritus member of Paul-Ehrlich-Society (2016).
