Career Trajectory
Bio
Linda Onyeka Anagu (BPharm., MPharm., PhD, AFHEA)
Dr Linda Anagu is a pharmacist and molecular parasitologist with expertise in culturing Plasmodium, human endothelial cells and monocytes, PBMCs isolation, quantifying transcriptional expression using quantitative PCR, molecular cloning and subsequent data analysis. She has a good understanding of Plasmodium genetics and the design and analysis of epidemiological studies. She uses this knowledge to investigate malaria pathogenesis with the aim of bringing her research findings to the notice of policymakers and thus positively impacting the malaria control strategy. She recently completed a fellowship where she provided a never-been-done training at our newly established molecular research laboratory. She has set up a facility for the in vitro culture of Plasmodium in this laboratory and has trained postgraduate students, staff and research assistants on this technique.
Her research focus is currently on the development of anti-disease interventions against malaria. Her research niche encompasses malaria pathogenesis, epigenetics in P. falciparum, virulence gene expression/regulation, transcriptomics and the epidemiology of malaria. Her career vision is to identify parasite factors and transcriptional regulatory pathways that can be modified in the progression from uncomplicated to severe malaria, or in the maintenance of a chronic Plasmodium infection. She also has a long-standing interest in vaccine development – as she developed her first proposal in this area.
She is an Associate fellow of the Higher Education Academy and an Africa Research Excellence Fund Fellow. She has demonstrated her progress toward becoming a research leader by winning two international grants. She worked on the Zero Malaria Starts with Me – Draw the Line against Malaria campaign in 2022 as a malaria champion. This campaign was organised by Malaria No More to raise Global Funds during the Kigali Summit on Malaria and NTDs in 2022.
