Stephen Mortlock is currently working for Quest Diagnostics (Heston UK) where he is head of the combined Immunology and Molecular Biology Department. The team in collaboration with Anatomic Pathology published one of the first descriptions of detecting HPV from liquid based cytology specimens in the UK. They have since used similar techniques for detecting multiple organisms from liquid based cytology specimens: including Chlamydia, Herpes simplex virus and Neisseria gonorrhoea. Prior to joining Quest Diagnostics, Stephen was the Chief Microbiologist at the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre in Lahore, Pakistan. Over a two year period they published a number of papers on an eclectic range of subjects from enteric pathogens to food science. Stephen has also worked for the Health Protection Agency in the UK and spent time in the Middle East.
