This November, I’m joining the University of Nottingham as Assistant Professor in Microbiology to launch my lab. We’ll explore Pichia pastoris, cell-free protein synthesis, and in vitro glycosylation to create flexible, efficient protein production platforms.

Proud to share our pre-print describing our cell-free two step approach for the production of conjugate vaccines. Not only do we produce vaccines at scale in 5 days, but show an immunogenic response in mice.

I’m so happy that the major focus of my PhD is out! Very proud of what we accomplished here, and excited for the potential this tech has to enhance future point-of-care protein diagnostics. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
