Research Support Scientist and CCAP Curator

Expertise

I graduated in 2009 from the University of Liverpool and joined the ÎçҹѰ»¨ team in 2010 working on the Carbon Trust funded Control of Grazers project looking into the predation effect of ciliates in microalgae cultures.

I have since contributed to a number of algal biotechnological projects including the European  and the Seabiotech Bio-prospecting project.

I became a curator in CCAP in 2013 and look after a number of different algal groups.
