I am an Agricultural Biochemistry Professor specialising in molecular biology, structural biochemistry, and animal health. My research focuses on host–pathogen interactions, particularly the role of glycans in livestock infections. My team leverages structural insights to develop practical diagnostics and disease-control solutions for field use. This bench-to-barn strategy has enabled the rapid creation of isothermal tests for key livestock and bee diseases and supports national and global initiatives in vaccine development, biosecurity, and antimicrobial reduction.
