About
PhD graduate from Queen Mary University of London, my research was undertaken in Professor Silvia Marino’s brain tumour research group. Specifically, I was part of a team researching Glioblastoma Multiforme, the most prevalent and deadly adult brain tumour. Throughout my PhD I developed my wet lab skills and learnt to code for the purpose of analysing high throughput sequencing data such as RNAseq and DNA methylation array data. Since finishing my PhD I have worked as a Bioinformatician in the Genome Centre at the Blizard Institute, QMUL, where I have built up a experience in a very wide variety of Bioinformatics pipelines and analyses for a variety of datasets.
