Biography
My research interests centre on molecular and genetic biology, with a focus on understanding the structural and functional basis of proteins in health and disease. I am particularly interested in how genetic and molecular mechanisms regulate cellular responses, with applications in immunology, antimicrobial resistance, and therapeutic development.
My work integrates structural biology, molecular microbiology, and bioinformatics, with significant experience in protein characterisation and the study of therapeutic proteins. I have contributed to research on protein structure–function relationships and biocatalysis, supporting the development of novel strategies in drug discovery and biotechnology.
More recently, my research has expanded into RNA biology and AI-driven approaches to drug design, reflecting a growing interest in predictive and data-driven methods for identifying therapeutic targets.
Alongside my research, I deliver teaching in immunology, genetics, and molecular biology, and supervise PhD and MSc projects in areas spanning molecular biosciences and bioinformatics... I am committed to developing interdisciplinary research that bridges fundamental biology with translational applications in health and disease.
