Online Biomedical Sciences Tutor Robert

I am a highly experienced biologist and university educator with a broad academic background spanning molecular and cellular biology, parasitology, microbiology, biochemistry and basics in ecology. My research has focused on the evolution and molecular mechanisms of microbial parasites, host–microbe interactions, and the role of the microbiota in health and disease. I have a strong interest in the One Health approach, which integrates human, animal, and environmental health, and have applied this framework in my work on host–parasite–microbiota systems.

My passion for natural history has been a consistent thread throughout my academic journey and led me to work at the Natural History Museum in London, where I studied the molecular evolution and ecology of freshwater ciliates. This early work deepened my interest in the evolutionary diversity of microbial eukaryotes and provided a foundation for my later transition into the study of microbial parasites.

Alongside my molecular research, I have long-standing interest in ecological studies of freshwater and forest habitats, and in the conservation of native wildlife species. With over two decades of teaching undergraduate and postgraduate students in biological and biomedical sciences, I am committed to helping students build deep conceptual understanding and develop the skills needed to succeed in their academic journey.

NOTE: Before starting the lessons, I offer a free introductory session (15–20 minutes) to better understand your needs, goals, and current level. This meeting also provides an opportunity to discuss the course content, the desired pace, and to test the online connection. In this way, we can build together a tailored and personalised program from the very first real lesson

Je peux également donner des cours en français.
