Spence Philip

I'm a molecular infection biologist by training, but shifted my focus from the pathogen to the host for my PhD. My thesis project examined both falciparum and vivax malaria using controlled human re-infection models. Key techniques I use are flow and mass cytometry, as well as bulk and single cell RNAseq. My work experience and expertise range from experimental design and optimisation to sample collection and processing to bioinformatic and statistical analysis, guided by the biological question I'm interested in.
