Real name:
1. I have two BBSRC funded projects to examine modifying vector viruses to potentiate or appropriately target responses to vaccine transgenes. These rely on either knocking out viral-encoded immunosubversive genes or inclusion of host cytokine genes. 2. I have a strong interest in immune development in chickens and how this impacts on perinatal vaccination. 3. Pursuit of the Holy Grail of a universal influenza vaccine.
