Introduction
Biomedical PhD research student at King's College London working on a project titled "The role of Lamellipodin in pancreatic cancer proliferation and migration". I am intrigued by how deregulated cellular signalling pathways can lead to various diseases and how these can be manipulated in order to develop better treatments for diseases. I have previous experience in cancer, diabetes and immunology research with a broad range of wet lab skills from various laboratory environments.

Glioblastoma is a tumor type of unmet need despite the development of multimodal treatment strategies. The main factors contributing to the poor prognosis of glioblastoma patients are diverse genetic and epigenetic changes driving glioblastoma persistence and recurrence. Complemented are these factors by extracellular cues mediated through cell sur...
Background:
Alteration of signalling pathways regulating cell cycle progression is a common feature of cancer cells. Several drugs targeting distinct phases of the cell cycle have been developed but the inability of many of them to discriminate between normal and cancer cells has strongly limited their clinical potential because of their reduced e...
