Charlotte Berkes, Ph.D

"I am studying the response of bone marrow-derived macrophages to infection by H. capsulatum using gene expression profiling."

Sinem Beyhan, Ph.D

"H. capsulatum has a dimorphic life cycle, switching from an infectious filamentous form in the soil to a pathogenic yeast form in mammalian hosts. I am studying the molecular basis of this morphological switch in H. capsulatum."

"H. capsulatum survives in human macrophages, but dies in human dendritic cells, which may have profound consequences for pathogenesis. My project involves characterizing H. capsulatum infection of murine bone marrow-derived macrophages and dendritic cells to understand how H. capsulatum manipulates host cells."
