Biography
I am an MRC Career Development Fellow at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge. Previously, I did my PhD under the supervision of Eric Rees and was part of the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Sensor Technologies and Applications. Before this, I was a Research Assistant in Gregory Jefferis' lab at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology for a year following my BA in Natural Sciences at Trinity College, University of Cambridge, to which I returned for my PhD.
