Andrew Conway Morris

Andrew Conway Morris is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences. His research focuses on mechanisms underlying innate immune dysfunction in critical illness, with specific interests in neutrophils, staphylococcal infections, nosocomial infections, immune dysfunction, and sepsis. His work employs techniques such as flow cytometry, phosphoproteomics, in-vivo models, and functional assays. Research themes include transcriptional dynamics in neutrophils during infection and tissue immune responses. He is also involved in collaborative efforts to explore these areas further.

Andrew Conway Morris is an Associate Professor of Anaesthesia at the University of Cambridge, specializing in the immunology of critical illness. His research focuses on understanding the role of neutrophils in conditions such as pneumonia and lung injury, with an emphasis on molecular diagnostics. He investigates how immune responses contribute to disease progression and outcomes in critically ill patients, particularly in the context of infections like ventilator-associated pneumonia. His work also explores the use of biomarkers to guide clinical decisions and improve patient care. Morris's research has significant implications for the management of critical care and the development of targeted therapeutic strategies.
