Dr Eunice Nduati
Principal Investigator
Biography
Upon completion of her PhD training, Euniece was awarded a Wellcome Training Fellowship to determine whether exposure to HIV antigens or to an altered cytokine environment in utero alters the developing immune responses in HIV-exposed but uninfected infants. In parallel determined immune responses to childhood vaccines in HIV infected children. In 2017, she was awarded a four-years mid-career research fellowship through the Initiative to develop African Research Leaders (IDEAL) - DELTAS programme. This fellowship supported my work to understand cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the generation of antibodies with relevant functions in HIV infection. During this time, I established collaboration with the International AIDS vaccine Initiative (IAVI) which is currently supporting my programme of work to characterize B cell responses and monoclonal antibodies to inform HIV vaccine design
