Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
My main research projects are focused on the investigation of the therapeutic effect of a novel prodrug-enzyme anticancer therapy and the development of a magnetic resonance imaging system that would enable the assessment of tumor metastasis in vivo, starting from a single cell. I have gained valuable experience in molecular cloning, protein manufacture and protein purification. My previous research included the pre-clinical testing of various different fluorescent reporters, anticancer agents and photoresponsive antibacterial therapeutics. I have successfully collaborated with a range of other researcher, leading to five peer-reviewed publications and and I believe that my diverse research background will be of major help to the proposed project.
