EGAN, Prof Timothy
PhD (Bioinorganic Chemistry), Head of Department and Jamison Professor of Inorganic Chemistry, Science Faculty, UCT.
Research interests: understanding how the malaria parasite deals with the large influx of haem associated with ingestion and degradation of haemoglobin in its digestive vacuole and the effects of antimalarials such as chloroquine, which inhibit this process. Biomimetic investigations of β-haematin (synthetic haemozoin/malaria pigment) formation. Speciation and behaviour of free Fe(III) haem in aqueous solution. Interaction of Fe(III) haem with antimalarials and effects on haem in cultured parasites. Synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies on β-haematin inhibiting compounds.

BA, MPH, PhD (Epidemiology). Honorary Senior Lecturer, School of Public Health and Family Medicine, Division of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Desmond Tutu Health Foundation.
Dvora is an Assistant Professor of Epidemiology at the University of California, Los Angeles. Her research focuses on evaluating innovative technologies and interventions to improve the delivery of HIV/STI prevention interventions (including pre-exposure prophylaxis) and treatment in sub-Saharan Africa, especially in pregnant women, male partners and families.
MAARTENS, Prof Gary
MBChB, MMed, FCP SA DTM&H; Head of the Division of Clinical Pharmacology
His main research interests are in the therapeutic aspects of HIV-associated tuberculosis and drug-resistant tuberculosis, antiretroviral therapy in resource-limited settings, and the pharmacokinetics of antiretroviral and anti-tuberculosis drugs.
McILLERON, Prof Helen
MBChB(UCT), PhD in Clinical Pharmacology, Department of Medicine, University of Cape Town.
Key research areas involve optimising doses and drug combinations for patients with drug-resistant tuberculosis or TB/HIV co-infection, and optimising anti-tuberculosis drug use in children. She participates in research projects across Africa, as well as in Asia and South America where a key interest is the support and mentoring of investigator-initiated pharmacology research projects.
MYER, Prof Landon
MBChB MA MPhil PhD; Professor, Centre for Infectious Diseases Epidemiology & Research, School of Public Health & Family Medicine
Thirty-one Masters students supervised; broad areas of research are: epidemiology of HIV/AIDS, other sexually transmitted infections & tuberculosis; maternal and child health; women's reproductive health.
NAIDOO, Prof Kevin
MSc (UCT), PhD (Michigan). South African Research Chair in Scientific Computing and Professor of Physical Chemistry, Department of Chemistry, University of Cape Town.
Computational scientist with expertise in the development of Parallel and Hybrid model computer codes for application to chemical, life and biomedical sciences. Research is balanced between development of life science software and its application to biomedical projects where more recently the biomedical application has been cancer. Scientific interests are focused on the roles that carbohydrates play in biological processes. A demonstration of the application of computational expertise is his use of molecular modelling simulations to develop therapeutics for cancer as well as his use of data analytics and informatics methods to develop diagnostics and prognostics for cancer.
