Immensely proud to tell you all my first paper of my PhD is out in Nature Medicine now! We wanted to know if the immune response to COVID-19 was distinct in an African cohort (spoiler alert: our data suggest it is!) Give it a read! nature.com/articles/s41591-0…

Our latest collaboration with @fidocklab is out. PhD student @ChemBio_John found mixed aryl/alkyl phosphonates that target essential serine hydrolases in Plasmodium falciparum. They kill parasites with low overall induced resistance. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

📢Parasite hour with PiP is back on Friday 17th!
Dr. Caroline Ng, will share her path from Malaysia to the USA and why she believes that targeting proteostasis mechanisms could be a novel antimalarial therapeutic strategy to combat artemisinin resistance.
