Dr Christina Faust
Research Associate (2016-2019)
Christina was a post-doc on SCHISTO_PERSIST and investigated the population genetics of Schistosoma mansoni in Mayuge District and implications of mass drug administration on parasite populations. Her research focused on the epidemiology and parasite population genetics across a spectrum of diverse demographics in communities, including pre school aged children and fisherfolk, to better understand persistent transmission hotspots. Christina moved on to a PDRA position at Penn State University and is now an independently funded NERC fellow in the SBOHVM, University of Glasgow.
