Biography
Mariah will take an antigen-agnostic approach to discover antibodies in conjunction with structural biology techniques to identify sites of vulnerability on P. falciparum merozoites. With this work, she hopes to discover potential antibody and immunogen candidates for blood-stage malaria as well as help answer parasite biology questions. She’s excited about this project as it combines her interests in basic biology with translational approaches, infectious disease research, and global health.
