David is an Infectious Diseases trainee currently undertaking a research placement. Having published work on Vitamin D in latent TB patients and its association with progression to active disease David is now working on a pilot study to increase the sensitivity of TB culture and detect persistent sub-populations of Mycobacteria within patient samples. This pilot data will inform the design of future large clinical trials of these techniques. David has also been working on a number of COVID-19 vaccine trials including leading on the COV001/002 and Valneva trials, and have published editorials on important topics in COVID-19. David previously completed laboratory research on respiratory virus’s effects on the ubiquitin intracellular pathways as part of an intercalated degree at Oxford University.
