Primary Research Interest:
  • The overarching vision of our research program is the reduction of disease burden associated with bacterial and viral infections among infants, children and adults. Our research program focuses on the study of infections using innovative, multi-disciplinary tools that enable more rapid disease diagnosis as well as more accurate ascertainment of the disease burden due to specific infectious pathogens. Our research integrates the application of tools across a wide range of disciplines in order to accurately describe disease burden by age, race/ethnicity, geography and environment. We conduct our research in close cooperation with community partners, non-governmental stakeholders, faith-based organizations, public health experts, and other technical experts with the goal of supporting the development of health programs and policies that improve individual patient outcomes and safety as well as reduce health disparities in the general population. Based on empiric research findings, we conduct rigorously-designed, evidence-based evaluation of interventions to achieve sustainable health gains particularly among underserved populations.

Title: Professor & Director of Research
Biography:

Dr. Paul Kilgore is a Professor in the Department of Pharmacy Practice at Wayne State University's Eugene Applebaum College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences and Co-Director of the Center for Emerging and Infectious Diseases at Wayne State University School of Medicine.

Dr. Kilgore received his MD from Wayne State University and his MPH in Epidemiology from the University of Michigan. He completed his residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Michigan and trained as an Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Following his EIS training, Dr. Kilgore served as a Medical Epidemiologist in the National Immunization Program at the CDC and as a Commissioned Officer in the U.S. Public Health Service.

His research focuses on vaccine-preventable diseases, infectious disease epidemiology, and antimicrobial resistance. Dr. Kilgore has extensive experience conducting clinical trials and epidemiological studies in the U.S. and internationally. He has served as Principal Investigator (PI), Co-PI, and Co-Investigator on numerous NIH, CDC, and industry-sponsored research projects, including recent COVID-19 vaccine trials. A significant portion of his work is dedicated to addressing health disparities related to infectious diseases in Detroit and other communities across Michigan, the United States, and abroad.

At Wayne State, Dr. Kilgore serves as course director for three key courses: "Foundations in Global Health," which introduces students to critical issues in global health programs and interventions; "Vaccines in Clinical and Public Health Practice," focusing on principles of vaccines and immunizations for various populations; and "Public Health and Population Based Care," which explores population health relevant to practicing pharmacists and public health workers. Through these courses, he prepares students to address both local and global health challenges. Dr. Kilgore is also actively involved in mentoring pharmacy students, residents, and junior faculty. He serves on several university and national committees related to research and public health.

As an expert in infectious diseases and vaccines, Dr. Kilgore is frequently sought out by media outlets to provide commentary on public health issues. He has been a regular guest on local radio programs discussing COVID-19 and other infectious disease topics.

Dr. Kilgore is a Fellow of the American College of Physicians and is board certified in Internal Medicine. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters throughout his career. His work in public health, both domestically and internationally, continues to inform his research and teaching, preparing the next generation of healthcare professionals to address complex health challenges on a global scale.
