Michael Cappello, MD
Biography
Michael Cappello, MD, is a pediatric infectious diseases specialist and leads a global health research program focused on diseases that affect children who live in resource-limited places.
Dr. Cappello provides care to children in the Yale New Haven Health system of affiliated hospitals, handling a variety of infectious diseases, including conditions acquired through travel.
Dr. Cappello is also chair of the Department of the Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases at Yale School of Public Health. His research, which is funded by the National Institutes of Health, as well as private foundations and donors, is aimed at developing drugs, vaccines, and diagnostics for parasitic diseases, including hookworm and malaria.
He has more than 115 publications in journals such as PNAS, Journal of Infectious Diseases, PLoS NTDs, and the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.

Biography
Michael Cappello, MD, is a pediatric infectious diseases specialist and leads a global health research program focused on diseases that affect children who live in resource-limited places.
Dr. Cappello provides care to children in the Yale New Haven Health system of affiliated hospitals, handling a variety of infectious diseases, including conditions acquired through travel.
Dr. Cappello is also chair of the Department of the Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases at Yale School of Public Health. His research, which is funded by the National Institutes of Health, as well as private foundations and donors, is aimed at developing drugs, vaccines, and diagnostics for parasitic diseases, including hookworm and malaria.
He has more than 115 publications in journals such as PNAS, Journal of Infectious Diseases, PLoS NTDs, and the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.
