Prior to joining EIP Stuart worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at King’s College London following completion of his PhD in cell biology at the University of Edinburgh.
When working as a Postdoctoral Research Associate, Stuart studied how different strains of influenza virus overcome the human immune system. During his PhD, he developed a novel method to interrogate how infectious bacteria adapt to the human bloodstream.
