🌿 Staff Spotlight: Dr Raphael Dias Teixeira

Like many kids, Raphael started out loving dinosaurs. Now he works with something much, much smaller: bacteria 🦠

Raphael joined the School of Biosciences in April as an Assistant Professor and structural biologist. His career has taken him from Brazil to Switzerland and now to Birmingham, where he’s studying how bacteria form biofilms and survive antibiotics.

Swipe through to find out what “waking” and “sleeping” have to do with his research, his top tip for students, and which Birmingham band he can’t get enough of 🤘

Keep an eye out for our reel for the full story 🎬
