Felipe Andreazza

Felipe Andreazza is a Research Fellow in the Department of Biology at Duke University, affiliated with the Trinity College of Arts & Sciences. His research focuses on bacterial pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms of insecticide interactions with voltage-gated sodium channels.

Research Focus: Utilizing structural biology and molecular techniques, his work investigates: (1) the establishment of an aqueous environment as a novel mechanism of bacterial pathogenesis, and (2) high-resolution analysis of insecticide interactions with voltage-gated sodium channels.

Grants:

• Establishment of an aqueous environment as a novel mechanism of bacterial pathogenesis (National Institutes of Health, 2020–2026)
• High-resolution insights into insecticide interactions with voltage-gated sodium channels (National Institutes of Health, 2020–2025)
