About
I started my career in microbiology at CPA laboratory, a small independent food and water analytic lab whilst at college. It was here that I developed an interest in microbiology.
I then completed both a BSc and MSc in Biomedical Science at ΢ÃÜȦ, followed by a PhD at the same institution, working on examining the characteristic between clinical isolates of methicillin resistant - and -sensitive Staphylococcus aureus collected from both UK and Maltese hospitals.
I then carried out a three-year post-doc on the antimicrobial property of natural product and copper against a range of clinical important bacteria.
In 2009, I started as lecturer at ΢ÃÜȦ and became Senior Lecturer of Microbiology in 2011. In September 2019 I took over as the course leader for Biomedical Science. I am currently part of multidisciplinary working on antibiotic resistance and nature products.
