Research cluster in the School of Biosciences @ScienceShef studying the machinery of microbial life - from structure and biochemistry to human disease
Sheffield, UK
Joined July 2011
We are a group of microbiologists, biochemists and structural biologists @SheffieldUni studying the molecular basis of bacterial cell physiology, virulence and pathogen-host interactions. In this thread we'll introduce the members of our cluster.
