I am a senior lecturer and course director for the MSc in Integrated Immunology at the Nuffield Department of Surgical Sciences. With a background as an educator and research scientist, my expertise lies in immunology. I completed my PhD in T-cell repertoire selection at Imperial College London and subsequently conducted post-doctoral research focused on T-cell development and differentiation. My work included a junior fellowship funded by the NIHR BRC on thymus transplantation and an independent career development fellowship from Asthma UK, where I studied morphogen signaling in Th2 cell differentiation. Throughout my career, I have supervised numerous student research projects at BSc, MSc, and PhD levels and contributed to various aspects of immunology education and course management. I have experience in academic leadership and have acted as an external examiner for courses at other institutions, fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing in the field.
