Research interests

I am a physician specialising in infectious diseases and microbiology, and an MRC Clinical Research Fellow investigating the evolution of viral pathogens. Collectively our department, led by Jonathan Edgeworth, works on the translation of rapid genomics into clinical practice for pathogen identification, prediction of antimicrobial resistance, and outbreak analysis.
