Happy #InternationalWomensDay2023 to my inspiring women colleagues & mentors whom I have had the privilege to work alongside! Thank you
Today I also share some exciting news: later 2023, I will join
Telethon Kids Insitute, University of Western Australia as the inaugural Fiona Stanley Chair of Child Health Research.
Prof. Fiona Stanley is not only an inspiring medical researcher and founding Director of Telethon Kids Institute, but she also has and continues to develop, enable and support women researchers in STEM.
I look forward to the new challenges and collaborations that await in malaria, global health and child health research! I am proud to serve as the inaugural Fiona Stanley Chair in Child Health Research at Telethon Kids Institute, The University of Western Australia.
Thank you to all my colleagues at Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute, University of Basel for the fantastic opportunities and support over the years and I look forward to our continued collaborations and impactful science.
