Neha Sylvia Walter

Dr. Neha Sylvia Walter is a project Scientist-D at the Department of Medical Parasitology, PGIMER, Chandigarh, India, currently working on clinical samples of neurocysticercosis. Her primary research focuses on the screening of novel molecules and drug candidates (natural products, synthetic compounds, drug-repurposing) against Plasmodium, especially asexual blood stages to explore new therapeutic interventions to contain the disease. In addition, she is also interested in understanding the immune mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis.

Working as a MESA Correspondent at ICPVR2022 would provide me with an excellent chance to learn about new discoveries in parasitology and will also enhance my professional network and interactions with experts.
