Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Humphrey Wanjala's research focuses on cellular signaling pathways and their role in disease, particularly in the context of parasitic infections. His work investigates how hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling impacts macrophage function and promotes lymphangiogenesis during *Leishmania major* infection. Wanjala has published findings on HIF-α activation's effects on macrophages in murine models of leishmaniasis. He has also contributed to a review on viral disease histopathology in aquaculture finfish, detailing organ-specific pathological changes and diagnostic insights relevant to the World Organisation for Animal Health. Wanjala collaborates with researchers from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Manjunath Bettadapura, Hayden Roys, Anne K. Bowlin, and Gopinath Venugopal, with whom he shares three publications.
