We use poliovirus as a model for picornavirus infection to study the infection pathway by cryoEM.

Complexes with antibodies can trap intermediates in the infection pathway by cryoEM.

We are examining the structure of specialised extensions of bacteria that can conduct electricity.

This interesting virus is in clinical trials for treatment of specific cancers. We want to investigate the mechanism of infection.

Biophysical and structural analysis of membrane proteins can help explain their physiological function and help explain mechanisms of disease.

Using elemental mapping we are looking at the organisation of genomic material within cells.
