Research summary
AI-generated

Dibyadyuti Datta studies severe malaria and its long-term effects on children, especially how the disease injures the brain, kidneys, and blood, and how it impacts later cognitive ability and family wellbeing. The research combines clinical studies (often in low-resource settings such as Uganda), blood biomarkers, and immune mechanisms, and also extends to related topics like sickle cell anemia and traumatic brain injury.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
