Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease, with its most severe form caused by the protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum. The rapid emergence and spread of drug‑resistant parasites demand new therapeutic strategies.

My research contributes to broader insights into sexual selection, life-history evolution, and the potential impacts of environmental change on reproductive dynamics in natural populations.

Plants employ a suite of gene regulatory mechanisms that enable them to occupy a diverse range of environments and respond to ongoing perturbations.

My PhD work defines the sources and mechanisms of cholesterol uptake in P. falciparum-infected RBCs and demonstrates how this pathway can be exploited to improve antimalarial drug delivery and therapeutic index.

Multilevel societies—where social groups show intergroup tolerance and repeatedly associate and merge with specific other groups—are among the most complex forms of social systems in vertebrates.
