Dr Elisabeth Curling

About

Dr Elisabeth Curling completed a PhD in Immunology at the National Institute of Medical Research (NIMR) in London (1980-1983) and then conducted postdoctoral research on the prevention of transplant rejection at the John Radcliffe Hospital Oxford (1983-1987) and on the glycosylation of interferon gamma in batch and continuous culture at the University of Kent (1987-1992). She became a Teaching and Scholarship Lecturer in the School of Biosciences in April 1995. She is passionate about teaching all aspects of Immunology to students from their first year to their final year of studies. Many of our graduates are inspired by her teaching to go on to pursue successful research careers in Immunology and related fields.

Elisabeth has also presented her mindfulness work nationally in an oral presentation entitled “The Impact of bespoke Mindfulness Practice sessions on Bioscience undergraduate students with Acute Anxiety” (University of Warwick) in June 2017 and as an invited speaker at the University of Kent (Conference on Mindfulness for Wellbeing and Peak Performance) in July 2018, as well as at other Kent University student wellbeing/student services events across campus.
