Dylan Maghini

Dr. Maghini will spend her fellowship year at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa under the mentorship of Scott Hazelhurst, PhD and Ami Bhatt, MD, PhD. Her research will focus on determining risk factors for HIV-associated comorbidity development in sub-Saharan Africa.

Dr. Maghini is a researcher at Stanford University. She aims to lead a research team that leverages equitable partnerships to study human genomics in a global health context and to inform and advocate for local and international policy changes. Her research experiences in genomics led her to more broadly consider the applications of -omics research in addressing pressing issues in global health. Her graduate studies in data science components of global health shaped her appreciation for the importance of community-engaged and equitable global research.
