Caroline Keroack

I am currently a MSc candidate in the Williams laboratory at Smith College, focusing on surveying the biodiversity of marine mammal parasitic infections and using evolutionary and molecular information to generate important diagnostic tools for these infections. I have a strong passion for infectious disease and have worked on a variety of projects including those focusing on lymphatic filariasis. Although my current focus is mainly on veterinary pathogens (specifically parasites of marine mammals), I am able to bring a unique perspective to many problems in infectious disease. I am very interested in expanding my research to understand zoonotic events.
