As well as my own direct work, the research I am responsible for is performed with a small team of dedicated technicians and students working under my guidance. Bringing different skills and responsibilities with a strong focus on mentoring and development, we are able to work together to do great science as well as equip students with the intellectual and practical skills they can take with them in their future careers.
