Biography

An engineer by training, my research career has been primarily focused antigen processing and presentation by major histocompatibility molecules, and recently on developing time control methods using microfluidics.

Interests

My immunology research interests are in developing cancer vaccines combining immunopeptidomics, computational modelling and multiomics methods. Other immunology resarch projects have included influenza, COVID-19, skin sensitization to chemical allergens, asthma and contagious cancer in the Tasmanian Devil. I am also a Data and Software Carpentry instructor. My microfluidics devices research combines fluid dynamics simulations with 3D printing and poly(dimethylsiloxane) fabrication.
