Rate My Professor Fenella Rich

Rich has co-authored 18 publications, accumulating 451 citations, spanning virology, immunology, and molecular biology. Notable works include 'Chromosomal instability and its effect on cell lines' (Cancer Reports, 2023, with Z. He, A. Wilson, D. Kenwright et al.), where she contributed to analyzing cancer cell line variability; 'Jurkat T-cell lines exhibit marked genomic instability' (Scientific Reports, 2025, acknowledged for spectral flow cytometry input); 'Langerin+ CD8α+ Dendritic Cells Drive Early CD8+ T Cell Response' (Frontiers in Immunology, 2018); 'Oral Vaccination with Lipid-Formulated BCG Induces a Long-lived, Multifunctional CD4+ T Cell Memory Immune Response' (2012); 'Human Bocavirus in Infants, New Zealand' (Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007, with N. Redshaw, C. Wood, K. Grimwood, J.R. Kirman); 'Distinct Patterns of Evolution Between Respiratory Syncytial Virus Subgroups A and B From New Zealand Isolates Collected Over Thirty-Seven Years' (2006); and studies on rotavirus strains, BCG vaccination, regulatory T cells in mycobacterial infection, and dendritic cells in tumor immunotherapy. Previously associated with the Malaghan Institute of Medical Research as a Senior Research Officer, her technical support is frequently acknowledged in University of Otago postgraduate theses for training in laboratory techniques such as tissue embedding, H&E staining, metagenomic sequencing, and more.
