Our mission

The Cellular Responses to Disease and Vaccination Group aims to understand the key cellular mechanisms that lead to protective immunity in response to malaria infection and vaccination and to discover why these cells are less responsive in children and in those with prior malaria infection.

Long term, our research aims to develop novel therapeutics that can boost protective immunity during malaria infection or vaccination.
