Incredibly excited to share my final project from Monash which was recently published in @jimmunol.bsky.social! Together with Jesse Mulder from the Robinson Group @robinsonmj.bsky.social, we found a role for IL-21 in allergy responses by promoting type 2 memory B cell formation. Check it out !👇🏼

A huge thank you to Bel and the ABC Science & TOP 5 teams for all of their support putting this together. The TOP 5 program was the most informative media and sci-comm training, I couldn't recommend it more highly! Applications for the next TOP 5 programs close SUNDAY

Having received my vaccines for work just yesterday, this question is once again at the forefront of my mind. My goal for the ABC TOP 5 Science Program was to share with the public the status of needle-free vaccines, as well as discuss immunology more broadly and make it more accessible

With the flu season starting earlier than expected this year in Aus, it's time for the jab. But for many people, myself included, needle fear can be a hurdle when scheduling annual vaccines. So why can't vaccines be needle-free? Here we discuss the history, action and future of needle free vaccines

I'm incredibly excited to share my Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) program, developed as part of the TOP 5 Science Program!
Have a listen to the episode below, where I chat with Belinda Smith about all things needle-free vaccines

I’m thrilled to announce that last month I moved to the UK and started my postdoc at Imperial College!

Very excited for this next chapter and to be working with Dr Ryan Thwaites as we investigate immunity in the nose to influenza!
