I joined the Microbial Individuality and Infection lab as a post-doctoral researcher after completing my PhD on the binding and entry mechanism of vaccinia virus at University College London. In my post-doc, I am using microfluidics and time-lapse microscopy to study the phenotypic heterogeneity and persistence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
