Graduated in pharmacology and obtained a PhD in immunopharmacology from the University of Southampton. His research interests have focused on lung and joint inflammation and the cellular recruitment in asthma and arthritis. Current interests include the development of gene therapy for the treatment of arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. This research aims to combine gene therapy vectors with regulated promoter systems (responsive to pharmacological or physiological induction) to achieve long-term safe therapeutic effect in these non-fatal diseases.
