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 on her research, click here.
