Biography

Adam Dale is a NIHR Academic Clinical Lecturer in Infectious Diseases and Honorary Registrar in Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology. He obtained undergraduate degrees in medicine (MBChB) and Microbiology in Relation to Medicine (Bsc) at the University of Leeds before undertaking clinical training in South Yorkshire and the West Midlands. In 2014, he was appointed as NIHR Academic Clinical Fellow in the Wessex Deanery and was later awarded a Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Training Fellowship to undertake his PhD with Professor Robert Read, with a research programme focused on the characterisation of the adaptive immune responses generated in response to controlled human infection with wild-type and genetically modified strains of Neisseria lactamica.

His current research is focused on the utilisation of controlled human infection to understand the immunological mechanisms underpinning protection against upper respiratory tract pathobiont colonisation, with the ultimate aim of informing design of next-generation vaccines that specifically prevent bacterial colonisation. Adam is aiming to pursue an independent clinical academic career and is currently in the process of developing an application for an independent research fellowship.
