My research project
Novel models for detecting poxviral infection and innate immune activation
I joined the Maluquer lab in 2019 as a PhD student funded by a studentship from the UK Defense Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL) and the Surrey Doctoral College. My aim is to develop better diagnostic tools to identify and characterise poxvirus infections, whilst also investigating DNA sensing during the early stages of poxvirus infection.
