Biography
I am an NRPDTP PhD student in the Wojtowicz Group. My project investigates the influence of obesity on immune response.
The aim of my project is to dissect high fat diet induced molecular changes impacting immune system function, testing the hypothesis that high fat diets reprogramme megakaryocyte gene expression, ultimately worsening response to infection.
Before joining the Earlham Institute, I completed a bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences at the University of York.
Following this, I undertook a Master's by Research and worked as a Research Technician where I investigated novel therapeutics for myeloid malignancies.
