Interested in all things B cells, autoimmunity, nutritional immunology and child health. Located at UCL, ARR department in Division of Medicine.
3 years of the Rosser lab ✨ and delighted that the group has gifted me this hand made piece of art to prove they’ve been hard at work in the lab…. Wow.. It’s been a wild ride so far! Feel privileged to work with this amazing group of smart, talented, eccentric people every day. Bring on year 4..!
