Daniel Wilson
MA, DPhil
Professor of Infectious Disease Genomics
My research interests centre on the development and application of tools for microbial genomics, in particular population genetics, to understanding human pathogens. I am involved in the Modernising Medical Microbiology, STOP HCV and CRYPTIC consortia, projects with the common aim of using genomics to better understand clinically important microorganisms.
