Biography

I am a 22 year Old student, in the 1st year of studying a DPhil, in collaboration between University of Oxford and the Pirbright Institute.

In 2017 I completed an undergraduate Masters degree, writing a thesis on viral vector development against emerging pathogens, targeting Ebola, Marburg and Lassa virus.

In my DPhil studies I am continuing to develop vaccine's on a viral vector platform. For my DPhil I am investigating the closely realted animal and human pathogens of Nairobi Sheep Disease and Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever. I aim to produce vaccines which are protective for both livestock and human targets.
