Gary Ward, Ph.D., is a Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics at the Robert Larner, M.D. College of Medicine, University of Vermont. He directs the Vermont Immunobiology and Infectious Disease Training Program and leads the Ward Lab, focusing on the cell biology of host-parasite interactions in Toxoplasma gondii and related apicomplexan parasites.
Dr. Ward's research encompasses:
- Mechanisms of parasite motility and host cell invasion
- Calcium signaling in apicomplexans
- Post-translational modifications (palmitoylation, phosphorylation)
- Apicomplexan cytoskeletal organization
- Small-molecule inhibitors of parasitic processes
His lab has published extensively on Toxoplasma gondii motility (2013-2023), emphasizing:
- Myosin motor function
- Glideosome complex dynamics
- Three-dimensional invasion mechanics
- Chemical biology approaches to drug discovery
Lab members include:
- Postdoctoral Fellows: Robyn Kent, Kaesi Morelli
- Graduate Students: Frances Male, Anne Snyder
- Senior Lab Technician: Anne Kelsen
