Dr Paine graduated in Genetics from Wits University, Johannesburg in 1983. In 1990 he obtained his PhD for research on the molecular biology of viper venoms from Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM). In 1993 he moved to the University of Dundee Biomedical Research Centre to work on molecular aspects of human drug metabolising enzymes. In 2006 he returned to LSTM to investigate the chemical detoxification mechanisms of insects and identify and characterise the key enzymes associated with insecticide resistance.
Dr Paine heads the Enzyme Characterisation Group whose research is primarily aimed at understanding the molecular mechanisms of insecticide resistance and developing tools to accelerate the development of new active ingredients for vector control. This involves the use of a wide range of biochemical, molecular and analytical techniques and collaborations across academia and industry.
Dr Paine teaches aspects of vector biology, insecticide resistance and vector control for undergraduate, MSc, Diploma in Tropical Medicine and Hygiene and Diploma in Tropical Nursing modules.
