Current Project
I joined the lab in 2021 as a DPhil student. I am interested in how viral infection, particularly with Zika and Sindbis virus, affects neuroplasticity in the Drosophila neuromuscular junction
Previous Work
Before coming to Oxford, I completed an MSci in Molecular Biology at University College London. For my final project, I worked at the Fernandes lab, where I worked on a cross-species comparison of glial cell classifications.

Outside the Lab
In my free time, I enjoy running and baking (although I’m not very good at it).
