About
I am Director of the Viral Pseudotype Unit (VPU) within the University of Kent Medway School of Pharmacy, a purpose built, dedicated viral pseudotype R&D laboratory. The role of the VPU is to act as an interface between academia, industry, animal and public health laboratories with the purpose of translating basic virus research into in vitro cell culture based assays that can be readily employed for the efficacy testing of vaccines, antivirals and therapeutic antibodies.
I am a recognised global opinion leader in pseudotype virus platform technologies with 150+ peer-reviewed journal and review articles, and over 10,000 citations (h-index = 49). I am a consultant for VisMederi (Siena, Italy) and DIOSynVax (Cambridge, UK).
