Biography
I am a biologist with a broad background and interest in natural biological systems, entomology, evolutionary biology, and bioprocesses, specifically in how these areas apply to malaria vaccine development. I work with LMIV Teams and external collaborators to provide the best potential formulations for various malaria vaccine concepts with the expectation to deliver a stable cGMP manufactured product. Especially of interest are novel immunostimulants being developed for adjuvating formulations to produce a more specific immune response to the malaria vaccine type being explored.
