I graduated as a vet from the University of Bristol in 2009 but during the course got bitten by the research bug so when I finished I moved almost immediately into research.

I am currently a PhD student (still at Bristol vet school) researching Campylobacter (food poisoning bacteria) in chickens.

When not working I am being trained by my pet rats to give them food every time they do something cool.
