Our aim:

'To design and characterise a toehold switch with potential to detect any given RNA sequence. Our immediate target is the detection M. bovis RNA in a safe, low-tech and cost-effective manner'

We are open to collaborations and would love to hear about other projects! The main themes we are working on are:
  • Riboswitches (specifically toehold switches)
  • Diagnostic testing for disease
  • Tuberculosis in UK cattle
  • Cell-free systems
