Biography
Jonathan Richardson received his BSc Honours Degree in Biochemistry and his PhD in Genetics from the University of Aberdeen. He was appointed Lecturer in Host-Fungal Interactions at King's College London in 2019. Prior to his lectureship, he undertook postdoctoral research at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST), the University of Cambridge, and in London (University College London, St George's, and King's). The Richardson lab uses a wide range of molecular techniques to investigate host-fungal interactions with a particular focus on toxin-mediated pathogenicity, host responses to fungal infection, and identifying and characterising fungal virulence factors.

Research
Naglik Lab
The Naglik Lab employs molecular, cellular, immunological, biophysical and structural biology to investigate host-fungal interactions.
Centre for Host-Microbiome Interactions
Millions of microorganisms live in and on our bodies forming microbiomes on different surfaces. Researchers in the Centre for Host Microbiome Interactions study our relationship with these bacteria and fungi in health or in oral and systemic diseases such as periodontitis, candidiasis, oral cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.
Microbes in Health & Disease
The Microbes in Health & Diseases Research Interest Group aims to foster collaboration across departments and faculties at KCL to explore the multifaceted role microbes play in health and disease.
