Maudry Laurent-Rolle received a B.S. in Biology from Long Island University in 2001 and obtained her MD and PhD from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Her dissertation research, funded by an NIH pre-doctoral fellowship, allowed her to examine the molecular mechanisms by which flaviviruses inhibit host innate immune responses. In 2016, she completed her residency in Internal Medicine at Albert Einstein/Montefiore Medical Center and subsequently joined the Infectious Diseases Fellowship program at Yale University. Dr. Laurent-Rolle's research focuses on understanding how interferon-stimulated genes contribute to host resistance against viral infections and how pathogenic viruses counteract host immune responses. Originally from the Caribbean island of Dominica, known for its rivers and tropical rainforests, her work highlights the mechanisms used by important viruses like West Nile virus, dengue virus, and yellow fever virus to evade immune responses, which may aid in the development of new antiviral strategies.
