About
Rodrigo Hasbun
Rodrigo Hasbun, MD, is a board-certified and fellowship-trained infectious disease specialist focused on central nervous system infections, meningitis, West Nile virus, encephalitis, and other conditions.
He’s a professor and Graham Faculty Fellow in the Division of Infectious Diseases at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston.
Hasbun obtained his medical degree at the Autonomous University of Central America in 1990. He completed his internal medicine residency at The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston in 1994. He followed this with fellowship training in infectious diseases and clinical research at Yale University in 1997. During this time, he conducted research in meningitis and endocarditis that has been incorporated into national guidelines.
Hasbun’s studies on meningoencephalitis have received various grants and funding. In collaboration with the University of Houston, he expanded neurocognitive studies to include other infectious diseases, such as West Nile virus infection. Additionally, as co-investigator of the R01-funded West Nile encephalitis cohort study, he has led a collaborative neurological, neuropsychological, and ophthalmological evaluation of West Nile patients with a subset of patients also undergoing electromyography and volumetric MRI. He is a co-investigator of the U24-funded National Neuro AIDS Tissue Consortium that enrolls patients at Thomas Street Health.
He was also a panel member of the first health care-associated ventriculitis and meningitis guidelines in 2016 and the main author of the meningitis chapters in the main textbook of infectious diseases, “Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases,” and five chapters on UpToDate, the main online resource for clinicians.
