Division of Immunology, Babraham Institute
I did my doctoral work under Prof. Anne Cooke in the Department of Pathology at the University of Cambridge, researching innate immunity and type 1 diabetes. Afterwards, I joined Dr. Hans Oettgen at Boston Children’s Hospital where I studied food allergy pathogenesis and tolerance induction. Responding to an advert for a flow cytometry specialist, I joined Prof. Adrian Liston’s lab in Leuven and moved with him to the Babraham Institute where I am employed as a staff scientist. My work currently focuses on regulatory T cell biology in the tissues, but I help out with lots of projects including those dealing with neuroimmunology and respiratory infection responses.
