Research interests
My research interests are experimental evolution and source attribution. My work will widely focus on the zoonotic pathogen Campylobacter jejuni. Part of my research will involve experimental evolution to help understand niche adaption. As part of larger MRC research project, I will sample from a village in The Gambia and use bioinformatic techniques, to elucidate the sources of Campylobacter to help reduce spread of the pathogen.
