PhD Candidate, Antibodies, Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine

I am a MRC DTP funded PhD student studying at Lancaster University and the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine. During my PhD, I aim to engineer novel antibodies to help improve the therapeutic and diagnostic landscape for emerging infectious diseases and neglected tropical diseases, such as snakebite envenoming. I intend to adapt the skills I have gained through various antibody discovery projects to advance the well-being of vulnerable populations worldwide.
