BluScientific Test Data is run by the partnership of Dr Chris Woodall PhD, Lead Investigator/Lecturer in Virology in the School of Life Sciences at GCU (UK) and Dr Martina Berger PhD, Faculty Researcher at the UCI Medical Center (USA). Together we have extensive experience in (molecular) virology, virus detection, disinfectant efficacy testing, test development and quality control management. Bluscientific TD is also supported by the expertise in bacteria and fungi of Dr Leo Macham (Head of Microbiology, School of Life Sciences, GCU) and the expertise in biofilms of Dr Gordon Ramage (Lead Investigator/lecturer in Microbiology, School of Life Sciences, GCU). We also have the excellent support of junior PhD scientists and experienced graduate scientists in microbiology. Extensive modern laboratory facilities include those for microbiology, cell culture, Category 2 containment and molecular techniques (Real Time PCR, array technologies, genomics, proteomics, recombinant antibodies). We have years of experience in advanced microbiology education.
