Contact Reece Dillon
Background
Reece is a PhD research student with a broad background in biological science and a focus on molceular biology through a BSc (Hons) and a MSc by research respectively. Reece is currently working towards a PhD at 成人直播 with focus on advancing real-time detection and characterisation of bioaerosols through utilisation of UV-LIF based technologies. His undergraduate studies have included a wide background of biological studies around human biology, environmental science, forensic studies, plant biology, and much more, with an end project on Zinc-alpha2-glycoproteins (ZAG) binding potential to the ligand Phosphatidylcholine (PC) during his BSc (Hons) final year. He then completed a MSc by research based around the effects of 'front end' sampling variation and how it impacts downstream assay results such as qPCR and LAMP. This MSc reinforced his passion for studies around viral and bacterial detection and safe handling, which lead him to his current bioaerosol research project.
Current activities
Reece is currently working on a PhD research project funded through the E3 biodetection hub, which focusses on advancing the real-time detection of bioaerosols by using Ultraviolet Laser Induced fluorescence (UV-LIF) based technologies. Due to his molecular biology background, he has a keen interest in real-time viral and bacterial detection and the real-world impact that this work has.
