Description:
On April 26, “We Were There” honored the late Sherif R. Zaki, MD, PhD.

Dr. Zaki was the founder and branch chief of CDC’s Infectious Disease Pathology Branch (IDPB). He joined CDC in 1988 and held several leadership positions in molecular and experimental pathology, lastly as IDPB chief. Dr. Zaki died unexpectedly last November.

During his tenure at CDC, Dr. Zaki’s vision and determination took the pathology laboratory to the forefront of the agency’s work in responding to public health threats posed by various infectious disease agents. He established this team to be as one of the most highly respected infectious disease pathology laboratories in the world. Under his leadership, IDPB worked closely with scientific teams in all of CDC’s infectious disease programs.

The “We Were There” series features personal perspectives from CDC researchers on past and present historically important, CDC-led epidemiologic and laboratory investigations. This special presentation honors Dr. Zaki as a beloved colleague, friend, and scientist.
