Research backgroundIts been my privilege to work on a wide variety of projects during my time as a PostDoctoral researcher; my focus has always been human immunology but I have been involved with basic and translational research in the areas of G protein-coupled receptors, retrovirology, clinical trials, HTLV epidemiology, paediatric HIV and wound healing and scarring.
After short periods at the Universities of Oxford and Leicester I have now returned to the University of York in Paul Genever's Biomedical Tissue Research Group. I worked on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) in my first position after my PhD at Keele University so it is an exciting prospect to be working on them again. The research will address mechanisms to obtain the most disease modifying clonal MSCs suitable for therapeutically treating patients with rheumatic conditions.
