Pooja Sanduja

Pooja Sanduja is a Researcher at Boston Children's Hospital's Infectious Diseases Research unit, focusing on microbial pathogenesis and vaccine development. Her work addresses mechanisms of bacterial infection and strategies for cross-serotype immunity. She has contributed to studies on lipid raft interactions in pathogen-host systems and novel vaccine design principles for bacterial pathogens like group A Streptococcus.

Her research spans molecular mechanisms of bacterial cytotoxicity, host-pathogen interactions, and translational applications in vaccine development. Recent studies emphasize leveraging host cell components for understanding infection dynamics and designing effective immunogens.
