"Parasitic Infections" Featuring Dr. Keke Fairfax
Dr. Keke Fairfax is an Associate Professor of Microbiology and Immunology and the Director of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion at the University of Utah. Her lab uses the helminth parasite Schistosoma mansoni as a tool to understand the consequences of IL-4 induced immuno-modulation. She explains how helminth infections can reduce the efficacy of childhood vaccinations, and how mentorship and networking can help minority scientists thrive in Utah.
Dr. Fairfax’s commitment to making science a more welcoming and diverse environment for people of all backgrounds is as impressive as her science on helminths!
