Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Enatha Ntirandekura's research focuses on the immune response to malaria, specifically investigating the role of B cells in developing immunologic memory. Current work examines different populations of memory B cells, including IgM+ and IgM– cells, and their capacity to produce class-switched antibodies and germinal center B cells following re-challenge with Plasmodium yoelii. Studies also explore the requirement of ICOS expression for the maintenance, but not the formation, of splenic germinal centers during P. yoelii infection in mice. Ntirandekura has published four papers on these topics and collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Jason S. Stumhofer, Susie L. Brown, Jonathan J. Bauer, and Juhyung Lee.
