Esrah Du Defends Thesis on Plasmodium oocysts segmentation
Please join us in celebrating Esrah Du’s dissertation defense seminar! BPH students, faculty, and guests are invited to attend.
A graduate student in the Catteruccia Lab, Esrah is presenting their research titled “Remarkable and suspicious cells’: Uncovering segmentation in Plasmodium oocysts by volume electron microscopy,” on Tuesday, April 21.
Using state-of-the-art scanning electron microscopy, Esrah has reconstructed – at the nanoscale resolution – the full volume of a remarkable parasite cell called oocyst during the formation of thousands of its daughter cells.
We’ve loved working with you in IID, Esrah. We are proud of your hard work and impactful research, and we wish you the best on April 21!
