Biography - Mahalia S. Desruisseaux, MD

Mahalia S. Desruisseaux, MD, is an infectious disease specialist with a focus on internal medicine. She diagnoses and treats conditions caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi, using a range of diagnostic tools and treatment strategies to address acute and chronic infectious diseases.

As associate professor of medicine (infectious diseases) at Yale School of Medicine, Dr. Desruisseaux leads research aimed at understanding how parasitic infections contribute to long-term neurological and cognitive challenges. Her studies center on changes in blood vessels, inflammation, and nerve cells, with the goal of discovering ways to limit or reverse the lasting effects of diseases like malaria.

Dr. Desruisseaux received her medical training from Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, completed her residency in internal medicine at North Shore University Hospital, and pursued a fellowship in infectious diseases at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Her contributions to tropical medicine have been recognized with the prestigious Bailey K. Ashford Medal from the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.
