Kc Liew

I have finished Infectious Diseases (ID) training from NSW. Currently, I am a Microbiology Registrar in Royal Melbourne Hospital.

I am one of the principal investigators involved in the Immunofluorescence serological assay for Whipple Disease. That project has collaborated with the Australian Rickettsial Reference Laboratory, Barwon Heath.

Currently, I am collaborating with the University of Malaya to develop CRISPR as a SARS-CoV 2 clinical diagnostic tool, improving the NGS bioinformatics pipeline. I am working on the functional assay to evaluate a gene in Pseudomonas aeruginosa that may be associated with higher mortality in patients with Quadram Institute Bioscience.
