• Project Title: Targeting the sphingolipid biosynthesis pathway of protozoan parasites as drug targets

Institution: Durham University

Project Summary: I will be exploring the proteins involved in the sphingolipid biosynthesis pathways of a number of different protozoan parasites important in human health and disease, with the aim of structurally determining these to thereafter design inhibitors specific to these possible targets.

Interesting fact: I am a triplet!
