Heather is a PhD student at Imperial College London in the Department of Medicine, Section of Paediatric Infectious Diseases. Her PhD thesis focuses on using multi-omic datasets to understand and diagnose paediatric infectious diseases. She is interested in using bioinformatic approaches to identify novel biomarkers of infection, and to explore the heterogeneity in the host response to infection. Her research is highly interdisciplinary, spanning aspects of statistics, machine learning, biology, bioinformatics and medicine.

My name is Hazel Justice, I'm a biochemistry student at the National University of Asunción (UNA) in Paraguay. As part of my research thesis corresponding to the last year of my undergraduate studies, I worked on the molecular detection of virulence factors of Streptococcus pyogenes that infected Paraguayan children at the Microbiology department of the Health Sciences Research Institute (IICS-UNA) of the university mentioned above under the guidance of Prof. Rosa Guillén, PhD, head of the Microbiology department. The results of my work are the first on this specific topic in our country.
