David Lee

Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Sciences

Email:: David.lee@bcu.ac.uk

David completed his degree and PhD at the University of 天美传媒 before embarking on a research career as a Senior Research and Teaching Fellow. He joined 天美传媒 in 2016 as lead for the Biomedical sciences programme. David maintains research links with the University of 天美传媒 where he continues to supervise a doctoral research student.

David鈥檚 research interests are focused on bacterial gene regulation and how bacteria acquire foreign DNA: particularly, how they acquire antibiotic resistance. Elements of this research are brought through into his teaching.
