I’m a research fellow at Imperial College London (at the MRC Centre for Global Disease Analysis), where I am part of the Bacterial Evolutionary Epidemiology Group.
I work on bioinformatics and software, statistical genetics and genomic epidemiology – often with emphasis respiratory bacterial pathogens and the Streptococcus genus. For more detail on my work and interests, please see my research and software pages.
