About

As a postdoctoral fellow at Lund University, I bring extensive experience in molecular biology, highlighted by my recent Ph.D. completion at the University of Nottingham. My doctoral research focused on inhibiting breast cancer metastasis by targeting sodium-driven bicarbonate transporters, demonstrating my commitment to cutting-edge advancements in life sciences.

In my pivotal role at GSK in protein analytics, I provided cross-project support, conducting diverse assays using Biacore and Octet technologies. At AstraZeneca, I contributed significantly to an Oncology iMED project, overseeing lab work and ensuring seamless project progression.

Previously, I played a key role in the success of the UK Biobank, investigating SNPs and their associations with diseases. My scientific journey began with research on anti-apoptotic proteins and Hect E3 ligases, identifying post-translational modifications and exploring protein-ligase interactions in HEK 293 cells.

My goal is to leverage my scientific expertise within an industry position.

    Activities and Societies: Trampolining, Muay Thai

    Masters course encompassing a large array of disciplines aimed at developing a well rounded scientist prepared for further research in areas related to cancer biology. I studied areas from Tummor immunology and physiology to statistics and drug design. Also I studied a variety of laboratory techniques aimed at providing me with the skills required to enter many labs and work effectively. For my thesis I investigated the interactions between a novel anti-apoptotic protein and a HECT family E3…

Also I studied a variety of laboratory techniques aimed at providing me with the skills required to enter many labs and work effectively. For my thesis I investigated the interactions between a novel anti-apoptotic protein and a HECT family E3 ligase. My investigations required I master western blotting, co-immunoprecipitations, protease protection assays, and transfection techniques in addition to maintaining HEK 293 cells.

    Activities and Societies: Biology society, Model United Nations

    Second year of my undergraduate degree studied abroad as an exchange student. I undertook a wide variety of classes aimed at giving me a broadening my understanding of human biology. Whilst a student I covered topics and participated in laboratory experiments covering: genetics, microbiology, histology, and nutrition. In addition, there was discussion of many contentious issues in biology were discussed and rigorous practice of paper critiquing.
