Postdoc in heparan sulphate biosynthesis @RosFrankInst @liangford. PhD @CarboKeele
Didcot, England
Joined February 2019
I have a PhD available via the YBDTP scheme looking at host glycan cross-feeding in the human gut microbiota. What networks does this underpin? What metabolites are produnced? and how would this ultimately impact the host (humans) #glycotime: https://t.co/VcYR4holJO
