Co-Director Autoimmune Neurology Diagnostic Laboratory
CNS autoimmunity, Assay development, Antibody cloning
My research focuses on antibody mediated central nervous system diseases. I am interested in the discovery of new antibody targets, the optimisation of assays to detect antibodies in patients serum and CSF, and understanding the mechanism through which the antibodies cause disease.
