Summary

I am Senior Clinical Research Fellow in vaccinology and Honorary Consultant in genitourinary medicine at Imperial College London and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. I read medicine at Newnham College, University of Cambridge, and Imperial College London before completing speciality training as a clinician scientist in genitourinary medicine and immunology. My research investigates diversity in T cell responses to accelerate discovery in vaccine design and implementation. I lead first-in-human trials and experimental medicine studies of novel vaccines against hard-to-target pathogens including HIV and chlamydia. I am Chief and Principal Investigator for the Imperial College London self amplifying RNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine and Oxford Astra-Zeneca COVID-19 vaccine trials. I received a Department of Infectious Disease award for substantial and exceptional achievement during the COVID-19 pandemic.
