Funded PhD project at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London, United Kingdom on sex-specific immune responsiveness , with a strong focus on immunology , genetics , molecular biology , bioinformatics , cell biology , and developmental biology . The project, supervised by Prof Matthias Merkenschlager and Dr Lila Allou , investigates why females are often better able to cope with some infections yet are more prone to autoimmune disease. The research centers on Toll-like receptors (T...

Funded PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute, London, United Kingdom. This project is with Dr Adam Sateriale and focuses on host-pathogen interactions in Cryptosporidium , an intracellular parasite that causes cryptosporidiosis. The research explores how the parasite remodels infected epithelial cells, escapes immune clearance, what parasite factors drive virulence, and which host factors influence severe infection. Research areas and methods: infectious disease, microbiology, immunolog...
