About
An Immunologist for 10 years, currently working as an Associate Practitioner at NHS Leicester. I am particularly interested in research that can provide feasible information to further treatments toward a disease. My PhD focussed on the potential use of extracellular vesicles as a treatment delivery system. Following on from this I joined the laboratory of Professor Catharien Hilkens as a Research Associate to lead the pre-clinical trial work on the Autologous Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells for Rheumatoid Arthritis 2 (AuToDeCRA2) clinical trial. I have experience in supervising, marking and teaching higher education students including joint supervision of wet laboratory projects for undergraduates.
