Dr. Pius N. Nde is an Associate Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at
Meharry Medical College. He received his BSc and MSc degrees from the Biochemistry Department of the University of Ibadan, Nigeria and his PhD degree in Molecular Biology from Humboldt-University Berlin, Germany. Subsequently, he completed postdoctoral research training at Meharry Medical College in the laboratory of Dr. Fernando Villalta. Dr. Nde’s overall research interest focuses on “host pathogen interactions, molecular mechanisms of cardiac pathology induced by Trypanosoma cruzi and diagnosis of neglected tropical diseases.” His current SC1 research project entitled “Molecular mechanisms of Trypanosoma cruzi cardiopathogenesis ” is funded by NIAID, http://projectreporter.nih.gov/project_info_description.cfm?aid=9073494. The focus of the grant is to elucidate the molecular mechanisms utilized by T. cruzi to induce a fibrogenic response that can be exploited for the development of molecular intervention strategies. He is also a previous recipient of the SCORE SC2 grant from NIH. Currently, he is a member of ASBMB, American Society of Matrix Biology and American Heart Association. Dr. Nde’s, publications are available in the link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/myncbi/pius.nde.1/bibliography/43068717/public/?sort=date&direction=ascending
Title of Dr. Nde’s RTRN Spotlight presentation is “Molecular mechanisms of cardiac fibrosis induced by Trypanosoma cruzi infection”
