Hi, my name is Patrick Cunningham. I am a local Queen's student, living in Northern Ireland, and I completed both my biochemistry undergraduate degree and my MSci here. I am currently in the first year of my PhD, working to improve our understanding of cyanophage and cyanobacteria interactions and how we sample them, with the aim of using them as a treatment for the seasonal harmful algal blooms affecting Lough Neagh.
Project: Cyanophage and cyanobacteria interactions, and their potential as a treatment for the seasonal harmful algal blooms affecting Lough Neagh. Funded by QUARTILES.
Outside the lab: Walking and hiking, badminton with the Queen's society, and tabletop games including Magic: The Gathering and Warhammer 40K.
