About
Jodie is currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Pulmonary Immunology working with Professor Karl Staples and Professor Tom Wilkinson, investigating the modulation of inflammatory pathways in chronic respiratory disease. She has a particular interest in using a combination of experimental infection modelling and bioinformatic analysis to delineate host-pathogen interactions in the airway.

Current research
Jodie's research interests focus on host-pathogen interactions in the airway and the impact this may have on those with chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD. She combines experimental laboratory work and bioinformatic analysis to better understand how these interactions impact on both the host and pathogen.

Biography
Jodie was awarded a LoveLuck scholarship to study for her undergraduate degree in Biology at Aberystwyth University (2011-2014). The broadness of the Biology degree allowed her to explore a wide range of biological sciences. Jodie then decided to study for her MSc in Biomedical Science, specialising in Medical Microbiology at Cardiff Metropolitan University (2014-2016). Here her interest in infection and immunity field grew and was furthered developed during her laboratory intensive research project.
After an enjoyable experience in the lab during her MSc, Jodie decided to pursue further research opportunities and completed an Asthma UK funded PhD in Biomedical Science (Immunity and Infection) at the University of Southampton with Professor Karl Staples (2016-2021). Here, Jodie combined her interests in the fields of infection and immunity and respiratory disease and used a combination of experimental infection modelling and bioinformatic analysis to explore the complex interplay between respiratory tract infections and the lung immune response.
After successful completion of her PhD, Jodie became a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Pulmonary Immunology working with Professor Tom Wilkinson (2021 - Present), investigating the modulation of inflammatory pathways in chronic respiratory disease.
