Ermias Mekuria Addo

Ermias Mekuria Addo works in biochemistry and natural products chemistry, focusing on discovering and studying bioactive compounds from natural sources such as lichens and other organisms. Their research explores how these compounds affect biological processes like cell death, with applications relevant to cancer treatment, as illustrated by work on a compound tested against high-grade serous ovarian cancer. This work bridges chemistry and biology by isolating natural substances and evaluating their potential therapeutic activity in lab and animal models.

Publication output has been low and irregular over the last decade, with several years of no output followed by a modest, fluctuating pace of about one to three papers per year in recent years.
