Dr.
Ghislaine Mayer is a microbiologist specializing in molecular
pathogenesis of malaria. Currently her research is focused on the
molecular mechanism of erythrocytes invasion of P. falciparum,
the role of P. falciparum ligands and human erythrocyte
receptors in the invasion process.
We are
also currently investigating the role of
migratory birds such as Protonotary warbler as dispersal agents for
infectious diseases. For further information
