Dr Josh Osowicki is a clinician-scientist who completed his PhD in the MCRI Tropical Diseases research group where he was supervised by Prof. Andrew Steer to establish a human challenge model of Strep A (Streptococcus pyogenes, group A Streptococcus) pharyngitis to accelerate vaccine development against this high priority pathogen. Josh worked with a multinational team of investigators to select and characterise a human challenge strain, design the study protocol, and undertake an initial dose-finding trial to establish the safety and reliability of the model.
