Plasmodium Infection & Anti-malarial Interventions

Our lab’s research interests span a wide range of topics within the malaria field, with particular emphasis on the hepatic stage of infection. We are interested in elucidating hitherto obscure aspects of the biology of Plasmodium infection, unveiling novel host-parasite interactions, and developing new drug- and vaccine-based anti-malarial strategies.
