School of Clinical Medicine

My research program includes projects on antimicrobial resistance and better use of antibiotics in children, infections in immunocompromised children and young people, as well as congenital infections. I am using surveillance data in new ways to better understand and optimize antibiotic therapy.

I am a Paediatric Infectious Diseases Specialist and Microbiologist, working at Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick, and a Senior Research Fellow in the Faculty of Medicine and Health, Discipline of Paediatrics, at UNSW.

I am willing to supervise ILP and Honours Students completing the UNSW MD program (formally MBBS), as well as Higher Degree Students (Masters and PhD).
