Defining phenotypic diversity in CD4+ T cells to better protect against malaria

Objectives

In this project, advanced single-cell technology and computational approaches will be used to closely examine immune cells that best protect against malaria.

Principal Investigators / Focal Persons

Hyun Jae Lee

Rationale and Abstract

Malaria remains a global health problem, particularly affecting children with high rates of illness and death. One of the challenges in fighting malaria is the lack of effective vaccines. By doing so,  this project will contribute to the development of improved vaccines and more effective treatments for the disease, ultimately reducing burden of malaria.
