Biography

I am a Senior Lecturer in Virology. My laboratory is interested in understanding the virus-host cell interactions at molecular level. Viruses are obligate intracellular pathogens that exploit host cell machinery to complete their life cycle and cause disease. Current research in my laboratory focuses on the identification of novel host factors and signalling pathways involved in the replication and pathogenesis of influenza virus and vaccinia virus.

Research Intrest

Molecular Virology, Viral Pathogenesis and Epidemiology
