Overview
I graduated from The Open University in 2018 with a BSc in Health Science (1:1) and a passion for microbiology. I have four years of industry experience in a microbiological setting including pathology and diagnostics (NHS), medical device decontamination and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Having witnessed how scientific research is used to inform professional practice and having experienced its real-world application in clinical and commercial settings, I was inspired to pursue a career in research and development and was awarded a CASE studentship with the SWBio DTP programme.
I am currently researching the transmission dynamics of Mycobacterium bovis, the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, under the supervision of Dr Xavier Harrison and Prof Robbie McDonald.
