RESEARCH SUMMARY:
Dr Scott Hammer is the Harold C. Neu Professor of Medicine, professor of epidemiology, and chief of the Division of Infectious Diseases at the Columbia University Medical Center. He is also the program director for the Infectious Disease Fellowship at Columbia University Medical Center. His career has been devoted to improving the treatment of HIV infection. He has been an active investigator in the Adult AIDS Clinical Trials Group (AACTG) sponsored by the National Institute of Health (NIH). In the 1990s, he chaired the two largest antiretroviral trials of the AACTG, ACTG 175 and ACTG 320, which helped advance combination therapy as the standard of care worldwide. Dr Hammer is also an investigator in the NIH-sponsored HIV Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN), a multicenter organization whose mission is to develop an effective preventive HIV vaccine. He is the Protocol Chair for the Partnership for AIDS Vaccine Evaluation (PAVE) 100, a phase IIb clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of a multiclade HIV-1 DNA plasmid vaccine followed by a multiclade recombinant adenoviral vector vaccine in HIV-uninfected persons. He currently is a member of the executive committee of the AACTG and is chair of the phase I/II committee of the HVTN. He has served as an adviser to the Swiss HIV Cohort Study, the French Agence Nationale de Recherches sur le SIDA (ANRS), and the HIV Netherlands–Australia–Thailand (NAT) Research Collaborative. He is vice chair of the IAS–USA Antiretroviral Guidelines Panel and editor in chief of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Antiretroviral Guidelines for Resource Limited Settings. He also serves as a member of the governing council of the International AIDS Society.

SPECIALTY:
Malaria drug resistance, chemotherapy, pathogenesis, cell development
RESEARCH SUMMARY:
A major focus of our group is to elucidate the molecular basis of chloroquine resistance (CQR). By genetic linkage and positional cloning, we earlier identified the pfcrt gene, located within a chromosomal segment tightly linked to CQR, which encodes a novel 10-transmembrane transporter located on the intra-erythrocytic parasite’s digestive vacuole. Using allelic exchange techniques, we recently proved that mutations in this gene, identified in drug resistant parasites from around the globe, are sufficient to confer CQR to CQ-sensitive parasites. Current work focuses on understanding the contribution of the individual mutations to CQR, determining their impact on parasite resistance to other antimalarials, and investigating the biochemical basis of CQR. We are also developing animal models to explore the role of pre-existing immunity on host clearance of drug-resistant infections. In collaboration with Dr. Myles Akabas at AECOM, we are also investigating the natural transport properties of pfcrt in heterologous cells. Other studies focus on defining the role of PfATPase6, pfmdr1 and pfnhe in contributing to parasite susceptibility to artemisinin, quinine and mefloquine.
We are also deeply involved in a major public/private partnership, funded by the Medicines for Malaria Venture and the NIH, and including GlaxoSmithKline and several academic partners, that aims to develop new antimalarial drugs that target fatty acid biosynthesis in the malaria parasite.
Another aspect of our research is to investigate the molecular basis of how parasitized erythrocytes bind to host endothelium, enabling them to avoid splenic clearance. A variant antigen family, PfEMP1, mediates this binding. We are investigating mechanisms of gene regulation that contribute to this switching of gene expression between different members of this family and exploring the genetic basis of endothelial receptor specificity.
The fourth area of research focuses on the digestive vacuole, the site of CQ action. Specifically, we are examining which ER or Golgi proteins are involved in protein trafficking to this compartment and using transfection and bio-informatic approaches to define sequence motifs that direct proteins to this site.

SPECIALTY:Staphylococcal molecular epidemiology and pathogenesis
RESEARCH SUMMARY:
Dr Rachel Gordon is an instructor in clinical medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases at the Columbia University Medical Center.
Her research interests include the molecular epidemiology of Staphylococcal colonization and disease as well as Staphylococcal pathogenesis.
In a past project, she described two major Staphylococcus aureus clonal types colonizing and infecting AIDS patients in a drug rehabilitation facility.
This research demonstrated instability of the mec element, which is responsible for methicillin-resistance. Currently, she is completing a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial of mupirocin vs. placebo in the same population to see if nasal carriage and infection with S. aureus can be reduced. Currently, Dr. Gordon is investigating the molecular epidemiology and pathogenesis of S. epidermidis in ventricular assist device-related infections. She is also interested in bacterial infections in drug users.

NAME: Franklin Lowy, MD
ACADEMIC TITLE:
Professor of Medicine and Pathology
|
EDUCATION:
Columbia College BA, 1968
Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, MD, 1972
SPECIALTY: Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases
RESEARCH SUMMARY:
Dr Franklin Lowy is a professor of medicine and pathology in the Division of Infectious Diseases in the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University. Dr Lowy's laboratory currently investigates the pathogenesis and epidemiology of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis infections.
Studies on the pathogenesis of staphylococcal infections:
One area of research his an investigation of the pathogenesis of staphylococcal infections in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). The laboratory is investigating the role of different S. aureus and S. epidermidis surface proteins as mediators of adherence to explanted LVAD material. The goal is to identify potential vaccine candidates. A multi-center observational trial is also part of this project. The goal is to better understand the epidemiology of LVAD-related infections.
A second laboratory-based project is an investigation of the pathogenesis of community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus pneumonia. This invasive infection has accounted for increasing morbidity and mortality on the past few years. A mouse post-influenza model for S. aureus pneumoniahas been developed to determine which bacterial genes are unregulated during infections.
Studies on the transmission of S. aureus among high-risk populations:
Dr. Lowy’s group is conducting studies on the transmission of S. aureus among high risk populations including injecting and inhalation drug users in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, in New York State Prisons, and in the Dominican population of Northern Manhattan. The goal of these studies is to gain a better understanding of the factors that contribute to the dissemination of S. aureus among the high risk groups.
