I am a Reader within the 'Viral Immunology' group of the Division of Infection & Immunity, School of Medicine, College of Biomedical & Life Sciences. My research covers the biology and cellular immunology relating to Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and the biological function of Death Receptor 3, a member of the TNFR superfamily involved in control of inflammatory and autoimmune disease. More details of the HCMV work can be seen at the Viral Immunology page.
