Re’em joined us in 2018 to study for his D. Phil. after an undergraduate degree in Biochemistry from the University of Oxford and a year spent working with Professors Max Crispin and Nicole Zitzmann. Re’em was funded by the Skaggs-Oxford program, jointly based at the University of Oxford and Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla. After spending time with us, determining how the Plasmodium vivax DBP protein binds to its human receptor, DARC, he moved to work with Ian Wilson at Scripps. After completing his D. Phil., Re'em remained in Scripps as a postdoctoral researcher.
