Dominic Stephenson is a researcher at Northumbria University's Applied Sciences Department. He holds a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and focuses on medical microbiology, particularly the diagnosis and treatment of mycobacterial infections, cystic fibrosis complications, and environmental pathogen detection.
His research emphasizes clinical diagnostics, including novel methods for isolating nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) from sputum and environmental samples. Recent work includes optimizing culture media for NTM isolation and identifying biomarkers for Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cystic fibrosis patients.
In 2022, he received the Royal Society of Chemistry Horizon Prize for contributions to analytical science. Stephenson has collaborated on projects addressing decontamination strategies in clinical settings and presented an invited talk on decontamination protocols in 2019.
