Led by Rhoel Dinglasan · Infectious Diseases and Immunology
What we study
The Dinglasan Lab studies malaria transmission and prevention, focusing on parasite-mosquito interactions and developing vaccines or drugs. They use mass spectrometry and nanoparticle technology to analyze malaria parasites and find new drug candidates.
