About Danika Hill

Dr. Danika Hill, Research Fellow, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia, received the Michelson Prize for Human Immunology and Vaccine Research 2020 for: “Exploiting T Follicular Helper Cells as an Innovative Tool to Discover Targets for Long-Lived Humoral Immunity.”

Dr. Hill’s research is focused on understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underpin robust CD4+ T helper cell responses to vaccination and infection in humans; she’s particularly interested in targeting T follicular helper cells to improve vaccine responses, measuring T cell receptor repertoire alterations after vaccination, and developing novel methods to identify antigen-specific CD4+ T cells.
