February 15, 2024 by rmm5m@virginia.edu

Evan Lamb is a MSTP student in the Alison Criss lab.  F30 Project Title: “Defining Mechanisms of Complement-Mediated Killing of Neisseria Gonorrhoeae”

Evan is investigating how the complement cascade of the innate immune system combats antibiotic-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae. His goal is to characterize the underlying biology of complement-mediated bactericidal activity and to inform future therapeutic/diagnostic modalities.

After his training, Evan aspires to conduct rigorous science with direct translational potential to improve patient health outcomes in the fields of immunology and infectious diseases.
