Biography

Jomo Kigotho was born in Melbourne, Australia and graduated with a B Pharm Sci Adv in 2018 at Monash University. Growing up in both Australia and rural Kenya ignited a passion for antimicrobial drug discovery, so his PhD research focused on the design, synthesis and evaluation of novel antimalarials, which he completed in 2023. He then moved to the University of Nottingham as a Research Fellow working on optimising the physicochemical properties of novel GPCR agonists as inhaled medicines.

Jomo joined this department at the end of 2023 and is working on the discovery of new medicines to combat antimicrobial resistance.
