BIO: Dr Timothy Wells joined the University of Queensland Diamantina Institute in 2016 as a Senior Research Fellow. His research focuses on the interactions between the host immune system and Gram negative bacteria during chronic lung infection, with a specific emphasis on Pseudomonas aeruginosa in chronic lung infections. His research uses a mixture of molecular microbiology, immunology and genomic approaches and has directly led to novel treatment of critically ill patients with multi-drug resistant bacteria.
