Biography:

Working in TB vaccine field for > 16 years, I am PI of a group studying mucosal immunology of TB, the immune response to vaccination and infection to understand: i) how vaccines generate T cell memory; and ii) how this affords protective immunity.  Major current interests include: the persistence of BCG vaccine & its role in protective immunity and the development and function of tissue-resident T cells in the lung induced by mucosal vaccination.

The overarching strategy of my work is: 'Understanding BCG protection for rational design of novel TB vaccines'.

Using a murine model of M. bovis infection, we use techniques such as: prime-boost & mucosal vaccination, 11+ colour flow, and T cell phenotyping to study protective CD4 T cells. We work using a One Health approach.

Previous interests include the role of IL-4/IL-5 in immunity to helminth parasites & fundamental T cell development in the gut.
