Dr Gerard Sheehan

I am currently a Research Fellow in the Prof. Robin May lab at the Institute of Microbiology and Infection at the University of Birmingham since September 2019. I am working on extracellular vesicles from Cryptococcus gattii and their role in cell-cell communication and virulence. I am more broadly interested in the interaction of fungi with their host as well as neglected tropical fungal pathogens such as M. mycetomatis.
