THE GENOMICS TEAM

Graduated from the University of York in Biochemistry and LSHTM with an MSc in Medical Parasitology after a brief stint in finance. Fell in love with bioinformatics at LSHTM, so glad to be back as a PhD student on the BBSRC LIDo Doctoral Programme investigating the genomic diversity of non-falciparum malaria species!

BBSRC LIDo PhD Student investigating the genomics of understudied malaria vectors. Specifically Brazilian Anopheles darlingi, and Ethiopian Anopheles stephensi populations

Graduated in Nursing, I have a Ph.D. in Sciences from the University of Sao Paulo (Brazil) where I have been working with malaria in pregnancy. I have extensive experience in field research, and research involving human subjects, as well as in the areas of clinical research and public health. I am currently a visiting postdoctoral researcher at LSHTM, where I am learning genomics and bioinformatics.

Initially graduated in Biomedicine from Nottingham Trent university, I decided to take a different direction and graduated with an MSc in Bioinformatics from Cranfield University. From there I learned how to visualise genomic data via fancy websites and create Java applications.

After completing my medical degree at KU Leuven University in Belgium, I worked on in vitro malaria drug screening at Cornell Medicine in New York City. I am now continuing to study malaria in my PhD at LSHTM, focused on molecular surveillance of drug resistance and using genomics to understand variation in human-to-mosquito transmissibility.

Biochemistry background from King’s College London. Graduated from Bioengineering master of research degree in Imperial College London. Currently pursuing a PhD degree in infectious disease computational genomics.

Graduated in Biology and Master’s Degree in Parasitology, both from the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS). PhD student in Applied Microbiology and Parasitology at the Fluminense Federal University (UFF) and is currently doing a split-PhD at the LSHTM. Has interest in Molecular Genetics, Parasitology, Virology, Immunology and Bioinformatics, with experience in genetics of arboviruses, enteric viruses and malaria.

Completed my undergraduate in Biomedical Sciences from King’s College London and postgraduate MSc in Control of Infectious Diseases at LSHTM, which has driven my passion towards tackling parasitic and vector-borne diseases, cumulating into a PhD. I have more fundamentals in wet-lab techniques and practices but slowly growing use to the dry-lab side of science.

I completed my undergraduate degree at Somerville College, University of Oxford in Biological Sciences. Afterwards, I moved back to my hometown in Liverpool to study Tropical Disease Biology at Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine where I became more interested in bacterial genomics and bioinformatics. Now undergoing a PhD that combined my interest in infectious diseases (Tuberculosis) with statistics and machine learning.

I graduated in Medical Technology from Khon Kaen University, Thailand, and later earned an MSc in Bioinformatics from Queen Mary University of London, gaining programming skills and expertise in variant analysis with tools like Exomiser. Since 2016, I’ve been a researcher at the Department of Medical Sciences, focusing on pharmacogenomics, rare diseases, and cancer genetics. Additionally, I managed a project developing a digital platform for sharing pharmacogenetic data via Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR).

Natural Sciences graduate from the University of Cambridge. Four years of industry experience in medical devices, before embarking on an MRC funded PhD at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Fieldwork, laboratory, and bioinformatics experience.

Previous degrees in Biochemistry and Veterinary Science from the University of Sussex and University of Cambridge respectively. Joined TAGC to help tackle emerging infectious diseases on a global scale using a transdisciplinary skillset including genomics, epidemiology, and microbiology. Funded by the OneZoo CDT which focuses on the OneHealth directive.

I graduated from Veterinary School and got my PhD in Tropical Medicne from Mahidol University in Thailand. Currently, I have worked as a lecturer in Medical School in Chulabhorn Royal Academy in Thailand and deal mostly with the pathogenic bacteria in both teaching and research focusing on antibiotic resistance of the bacteria.
