Biography
Senior post-doctoral researcher in the field of translational neuroimmunology.
I have many years of experience developing and characterising ex vivo and in vivo models of immune-mediated nerve injury. I have used these models to assess therapeutic interventions, some of which are now undergoing clinical trial.
