Emerging viral infections are an ever-present threat to human health. The risk of transmission of viruses to previously unexposed populations has increased as a result of increased global travel, global warming and changes in our ecosystem and human behaviour. I have worked on a number of emerging viral infections including AAV2, mpox, SARS-CoV-2, hepatitis C and E, Ebola virus, emerging rhabdovirusesand Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV). My laboratory uses next generation sequencing to detect new and emerging viruses in the UK and in Uganda in partnership with researchers at the Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI). We are engaged in improving diagnostic capacity so that undiagnosed new or emerging infections may be detected at source more rapidly in the future, allowing for early control interventions. We aim to investigate drivers of virus evolution using B and T cell functional assays including neutralization, ELISpot and flow cytometry.

I work as an infectious diseases and general (internal) medicine consultant with specialist interests in returning travellers with fever, early hepatitis C infection, HCV drug resistance and HIV co-infection at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow and have experience looking after patients with a wide range of infectious diseases. I am chair of the British HIV Association Hepatitis Sub-committee and work as an external consultant for the World Health Organisation.
