Biography

I am a Lecturer at PACE and a Group Leader at the Department of Genetics in Cambridge. As a microbiologist with a long-standing interest in infectious diseases, I am an expert on antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and my research is focused on tackling the rise of AMR. I am also an active member of the Microbiology Society, and I serve as an academic reviewer for a number of prestigious microbiology journals. I have lectured on several PACE programmes in Cambridge on topics ranging from infectious diseases, immunity, vaccination, and antimicrobial resistance. The feedback I receive highlights that my lectures are engaging with interactive teaching style.
