Quintin Lau

PeerJ Author & Reviewer

Summary

I completed a PhD in Immunogenetics and molecular biosciences (koala) at the University of Sydney in 2013. I have a keen interest in the host-pathogen-environment interaction, wildlife, immunogenetics and evolution. Currently a post-doctoral researcher at the Graduate University for Advanced Studies (Sokendai 総研大) in Japan, studying HLA evolution and frog immunogenetics.
