Rosie studied Natural Sciences (Pathology) at the University of Cambridge. During her degree she undertook projects in gene drive at Caltech, and Malaria transmission-blocking vaccine development at Cambridge. She continues this interest for her PhD at LSHTM, now elucidating the mechanism of action of a Malaria transmission-blocking compound to better understand the biology of the Malaria parasite in the mosquito.

Rosie has joined Bactobio for a 3-month internship, joining the microbial generation team to learn all aspects of the pipeline.

Rosie enjoys travelling to new cities, is an extensive podcast listener (top 1% Rest is Politics listener) and loves to watch comedy series and time-travelling rom-coms. She is trying to learn Mandarin and is starting to win Mahjong games against her in-laws.
