Specialist in tropical disease research- published over 25 papers as first author

热衷于热带病研究，主要从事分子生物学和遗传学研究工作。博士学位期间研究作为抗恶性疟疾药物靶标的人类疟原虫DNA拓扑异构酶II，内容包括：研究寄生虫整个生命周期内酶的表达谱和活性，从而确定抗拓扑异构酶药物是否能产生抑制作用。最近，采用遗传学和基因组学方法来确定生物医学的重要寄生虫基因（包括诱发宿主保护性免疫机制的基因）。此项研究确定了对疟疾的特异性免疫中的主要寄生虫基因，这是疫苗研究的一项重大突破。Dr Cheesman 感兴趣领域是宿主与病原菌交互作用的演变。她发表了25篇原创研究论文，其中许多以第一作者的名义发表，多次受邀在各种学术会议上发言。还享受了日本大阪大学（2007年）和长崎大学（2009年）每七年一次的研究性休假。于2010年加盟理文编辑，担任撰搞人和编辑。

Dr Cheesman has a special interest in tropical disease research and has worked primarily in the fields of molecular biology and genetics. For her PhD she investigated DNA topoisomerase II of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum as an anti-malarial drug target. The research involved studying the expression profile and activity of the enzyme throughout the life cycle of the parasite to determine whether anti-topoisomerase drugs could inhibit it. More recently, Dr Cheesman has been applying genetics and genomics approaches to identify parasite genes of biomedical importance, including genes that induce protective immunity in the host. Her research identified a major parasite gene involved in strain-specific immunity against malaria, an important breakthrough in vaccine research. Dr Cheesman is very interested in the evolution of host-pathogen interactions. She has published 25 original research papers, many as first author and has been an invited speaker at many congresses. Dr Cheesman has also taken research sabbaticals at the University of Osaka (2007) and University of Nagasaki, Japan (2009). She joined the Edanz Group as an editor in 2010.
