Steve Woodhouse

Steve worked in the Oxford Glycobiology Institute for a number of years and was interested in all aspects of the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) lifecycle. He worked on a number of interesting avenues brought to light from a gene and protein analysis of changes in host cells upon HCV infection. In addition he managed a number of things in the lab.
