Biography
I studied Biochemistry at the University of York, before moving to Bristol to carry out a PhD in Bristol. Here I used experimental techniques and molecular modelling to help undestand protein secretion in bacteria as a part od Ian Collinson's lab.
Following this, I moved to the University of Oxford to work with Mark Sansom and Phill Stansfeld for a 5 year PDRA to consolidate my molecular modelling expertise. This includes developing specialized tools and protocols for molecular modelling of membrane proteins.
I joined the School of Physiology, Pharmacology, and Neuroscience in July 2023 as a lecturer. Here I research and teach on understanding the biology and pharmacology of membranes proteins such as GPCRs and ion channels using molecular modelling and AI.
