Ludivine Baron
Plasmodium Infection and Transmission
I obtained my PhD in Immunology in 2013 from the Experimental and Molecular Immunology and Neurogenetics Laboratory (CNRS, Orléans, France), working under the supervision of Isabelle Couillin. I studied the molecular activation mechanisms of […]

Trypanosome Molecular Biology

Parul Singh
Plasmodium Chromatin and Transcription
Parul Singh obtained her PhD in Microbial Genomics working in Aswin Sai Narain’s research group at National Centre for Biological Sciences, Bangalore, India in 2018. Using genomic approaches, she worked towards understanding transcription factor cooperativity […]

Alexis Dziedziech
Ecology and Emergence of Arthropod-borne Pathogens
Alexis is passionate about understanding vector-pathogen interactions from a One Health perspective. Her fascination with this topic began in a summer internship in Hawaii during which she followed an endangered Honeycreeper, the iiwi, and […]

Trypanosome Molecular Biology

Parul Sharma
Group: Trypanosome transmission
Parul graduated with a Master’s in Biomedical Science from the University of Glasgow. During her master’s, she worked in the laboratory of Dr. Richard McCulloch, and her projects focussed on the parasite Leishmania. She […]

Dorenda Schoorl
Group: Humanized mice and in vivo analysis of human Plasmodium infections
My PhD project aims to investigate the impact of Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax infection on the host bone marrow and it’s immune cells in vivo, using a novel and unique humanized mouse model developed […]

Sharvani Shrinivas Shintre
Signalling and host-parasite interactions
I am a part of the ParaFrap International PhD programme. During my PhD I will be exploring the modulations of host pathways mediated by the secreted Leishmanial kinase, CK1.
