Ananya Dash

I am a PhD Candidate and American Heart Association Pre-doctoral fellow at Emory University. My thesis work in the lab of Christopher LaRock focuses to understand host inflammation from severe infections of Group A Streptococcus. My research interests include innate immune responses, mucosal immunity, host microbiome and women's health.

Beyond my research endeavors, I am a science writer with a passion to debunk health and wellness myths. Reach out if you have an interesting story that no one ever talks about but you experience it - I love to cover women's health and their unheard medical issues.
