研究领域

My research career has involved work mainly in the development of a Staphylococcal vaccine and application of that method to vaccines against other organisms for example Streptococci and Dermatophilus. This involved laboratory work and studies investigating the immune response of vaccinated patients in Italy and the United Kingdom. I have also been instrumental in organisation and prosecution of a Phase I clinical trial of the Staphylococcus aureus vaccine
