My first degree was in BSc Chemical Engineering Technology (Hons.) in Bioprocess (2012). I then pursued an MSc in Biological and Bioprocess Engineering (2013) and eventually completed a multidisciplinary PhD at the University of 91̽»¨ (2018). The doctoral research was exploring the functional role of specific chemokine receptor XCR1 and its bioengineered ligand in oral squamous cell carcinoma.
Before joining the NEOPATH research group, I worked as a researcher in a collaborative, multidisciplinary project focusing on tissue culture, tumour microenvironment and therapeutic intervention.
