You can usually find me in lab 105 (first floor) in the Genetics Department at Cambridge University. Or perhaps down the corridor in the library. I'm currently working on the imaginatively named "voltage" project, and have this OpenWetWare account as a part of the iGEM 2008 Cambridge wiki:

Education

Completed Part 1A of Biological Natural Sciences (Cambridge University): Biology of cells, Physiology of Organisms, Chemistry and Maths.

Research interests

The microbial genetic engineering approach at the interface between biological and electrical systems. One part of this involves mutant chassis selection (with appropriate gene knockout) and over-expression of various potassium channels and pumps. The second part is devising appropriate systems to measure the very sensitive voltage changes in vivo.
