Experience

Dr Sutton has worked for Southampton University Hospitals Trust since September 2008.

I have research experience in molecular and cellular immunology gained whilst a medical student at Oxford, on elective in the Gambia and during my Clinical Research Training Fellowship.  I was one of the first dual Microbiology/Virology & Infectious Diseases trainees, and have benefited from broad-based training, incorporating both laboratory and clinical aspects of the management of patients with infection.  During my clinical and academic training, I have developed a strong interest in Public Health Microbiology including surveillance and research.

Key achievements

Demonstration of evidence for partially protective T cell-mediated immunity to HIV in exposed, but uninfected sex workers.

I have taken the role of Health Protection Agency (HPA) Clinical Lead for Research & Development for the SE Region. Looking forward, I see opportunities for furthering the evidence base in the field of Infection and Public Health, including collaborations between SUHT, HPA and UoS.
