I am a paediatric trainee in London with a special interest in infectious diseases. I graduated from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2007. I commenced paediatric training on the North London rotation in 2011. I did an MSc in Paediatric Infectious Diseases in Oxford. My MSc research project investigated the interaction of wild type Salmonella Typhi and attenuated vaccine strains with human gut epithelial cells. I spent six months in Malawi working clinically with children at Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital in Blantyre. Currently, I am a Clinical Research Fellow working with the Paediatric Infectious Diseases Research Group at St. George's University of London on projects around maternal and infant immunisation. In addition, I am a PhD student in the area of Group B streptococcus (GBS) vaccinology at the same institute. The overarching objective of my PhD project is to contribute in defining a serocorrelate of protection against invasive GBS disease.
