Learning materials for high-school students
I am developing classroom materials to complement the GCSE curriculum around infectious disease, antibiotic resistance, bioinformatics and artificial intelligence. These are a work in progress, and I would love for teachers and students to try the materials and provide feedback. If you are interested in using the materials, they are available below, and I am happy to talk via email.
