Work Background
International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI)Scientist-Molecular and Microbiologist focusing on Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia (CBPP)
Jun. 2023Nairobi County, KenyaThe current area of research focuses on: Understanding host-pathogen interactions Disease control or eradication using vaccines/other alternatives Vaccine development/improvement In vivo models to study vaccine efficacy ie, challenge models
International Veterinary Vaccinology NetworkIVVN fellowship program
Dec. 2020 - May. 2022Nairobi, KenyaA grant awarded for women postdoctoral researchers from low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs). Funded by the IVVN and the Canadian government’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC) to support career progression in veterinary vaccinology and accelerate the development of vaccines for livestock and zoonotic diseases.
International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI)Postdoctoral Fellow

University College CorkPost Doctoral Fellow
Feb. 2017 - Jan. 2019School of MicrobiologyMy current research activities include understanding phage-host interactions, the molecular biology and comparative genomics of bacteriophages infecting lactic acid bacteria. A part of this work will also focus on the development of novel anti-phage strategies.
KU LeuvenPHD student
Sep. 2012 - Jan. 2017Faculty of Bio science EngineeringMy PhD work focused on the genetic elucidation of the influence of bacteriophages on the behaviour of the food pathogen Salmonella Typhimurium with particular interest on newly identified invasive non-Typhoidal salmonella strains from Sub-Saharan Africa. This study generated new insights in phage-host co-existence and how phages evolved into a more stable association with their host. Altogether, the study of this novel phage provided some clues as to why this phage is only found in these particular strains and the implications these phages may have on their host adapting to the new niche.
