Dr. Anna Müller-Hauser

MSc Biol.

Scientist

Anna studied Biology and did her PhD in Microbiology and Immunology at ETH Zurich. Her dissertation focused on the analysis of the mucosal immune response towards bacterial infection. After graduation, she joined the Master of International Health at the University of Heidelberg as TropEd student.

Since May 2017, Anna joined the Institute of Global Health to work at the Food and Agricultural Approaches to Reducing Malnutrition (FAARM) project. Her research interests include the interplay of nutrition and infection, intestinal inflammatory disorders and their impact on child growth.
