Postdoc specialising in Molecular Microbiology<br />

Short CV:<br />

Dr. Chloé Elizabeth James<br />

2003-2006: Post Doctoral Researcher at the <strong>University</strong> of Florida, Dept of Oral Biology:<br />

employed by Prof Richard Lamont. Fun<strong>de</strong>d by The National Institute of Health (NIH)<br />

Project: Investigation of the pathophysiology of the oral pathogens. I used molecular techniques<br />

(genetic manipulation, real-time PCR, microarray analysis and protein purification) to study gene<br />

expression effected by cell-cell signalling and interactions between P. gingivalis and S. gordonii.<br />

2001-2002: Post Doctoral Researcher at the <strong>University</strong> of Liverpool, School of Biol Sci:<br />

employed by Prof. Alan McCarthy. Fun<strong>de</strong>d by The Biotechnology and Biological Science Research<br />

Council (BBSRC).<br />

Project: Molecular characterisation of verotoxigenic bacteriophage infection. I used molecular<br />

techniques to investigate bacteriophage immunity and a host receptor protein for the bacteriophage<br />

attachment and infection.<br />

1998 - 2001: PhD Stu<strong>de</strong>ntship at the <strong>University</strong> of Liverpool, School Biological Sciences:<br />

Supervisors: Profs J.R. Saun<strong>de</strong>rs, A.J. McCarthy and R. Sharp. Fun<strong>de</strong>d by The Ministry of<br />

Agriculture Fisheries and Food (MAFF) / Centre for Applied Microbiological Research (CAMR).<br />

Title: “Use of a Recombinant Verocytotoxigenic Phage to Investigate Infection of Bacterial Hosts”<br />

Your responsibility in the network:<br />

Post Doctoral Researcher July 2006- July 2008<br />

Employed by Prof Jean-<strong>Marie</strong> Pages<br />

Project: Investigation of the transport of antibiotics across the outer membrane of multi-drug<br />

resistant Gram negative bacteria. Use of molecular techniques including genetic manipulation and<br />

protein purification to investigate the role of outer membrane porins of E. coli and E. aerogenes and<br />

their regulation.<br />

Your experience (positive/negative) with our network up to now:<br />

I have enjoyed working on a very interesting project that has taught me new techniques and introduced<br />

me to other disciplines and ways of thinking. The network is well linked and we have a strong interactive<br />

relationship, particularly with Bremen. I have conversed extensively with researchers of the <strong>Jacobs</strong><br />

<strong>University</strong> team via email and in person.
