I am a translational biologist with 21 years’ experience in developing gene, cell and pharmaceutical medicines for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and metabolic diseases. I currently run a state of the art research lab at the University of Reading that is able to facilitate medicine development and subsequent analyses in pre-clinical disease models.

Current programs included:
1. Optimising delivery of antisense oligonucleotides.
2. Viral and pharmaceutical mediated approaches to counter oxidative stress.
3. Novel approaches to induce immune tolerance to neo-antigens.
4. Antisense oligonucleotide mediated approaches to muscle augmentation for muscular dystrophy and metabolic diseases.
