Uncovering the function of essential exported malaria proteins at scale in Plasmodium berghei.
Dipti Singh is a postdoctoral researcher in Ellen Bushell Lab at Umeå University, Sweden. Her research focuses on essential Plasmodium-exported proteins and their role in host cell modulation. Using CRISPR-based conditional systems, she investigates how these proteins contribute to parasite survival and pathogenesis during blood-stage infection.
She completed her Ph.D. from the University of Hyderabad, India, where she studied Plasmodium parasite proteins required for maintaining pre-erythrocytic infectivity.
