About
Mehul Dhorda is a leading researcher in malaria genomics and transcriptomics, with a primary focus on advancing high-throughput methodologies for studying *Plasmodium* parasites. His major contributions center on standardizing and optimizing RNA handling and transcriptomic analysis of blood-stage malaria samples, which is critical for understanding parasite biology, pathology, and epidemiology. His most cited work, "A comprehensive RNA handling and transcriptomics guide for high-throughput processing of *Plasmodium* blood-stage samples" (2020), has garnered 67 citations, serving as an essential resource for the malaria research community. This guide addresses a critical gap by providing a compiled, up-to-date protocol for processing large-scale transcriptomic data, enabling more consistent and reproducible studies. Dhorda’s work has directly facilitated the integration of transcriptomics into epidemiological surveillance and drug resistance monitoring, helping to unravel how parasites adapt and respond to environmental pressures. His contributions are foundational for researchers seeking to leverage next-generation sequencing in malaria control efforts, making him a key figure in the fight against this devastating disease.
