Paulami Chatterjee
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research involves studying the pathogenic mechanisms underlying the host-pathogen interaction in pulmonary diseases. I am particularly interested in exploring transcriptomic and proteomic changes in Cystic Fibrosis and Asthma patients who develop severe allergic inflammation due to fungal hypersensitivity. Complete understanding of these interaction will help us identify significant fungal virulence factors and help us define clinically relevant targets for therapeutic use.

Helena Turton
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine
BioHelena is a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in Professor Edda Spiekerkoetter's laboratory in the School of Medicine. Her main focus is investigating right ventricular adaption and maladaptation in response to an increased afterload. She is also interested in left and right ventricular interdependence in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) . Helena completed her PhD in Pulmonary Vascular Biology under the supervision of Dr Roger Thompson, Professor Allan Lawrie, and Professor Sheila Francis at the University of Sheffield, UK. Her research focus also includes the investigation of dsRNA signalling in pulmonary vascular remodelling in PAH and pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD).
