Biography
I obtained my BEng (Hons) in Chemical Engineering at University College London (UCL) before completing my MPhil Biotechnology at the University of Cambridge, where I developed a novel bioelectronic platform to study the membrane of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from triple-negative breast cancer cells.
Before starting my DPhil at the University of Oxford in October 2023, I completed two 6-month internships in EV-focused companies: EverZom (Paris, France) and Murlsa bio (Cambridge, UK).
As a member of both the Akbar lab (RDM) and the Anthony lab (Department of Pharmacology), my DPhil research focuses on determining the role of sub-populations of EVs in the acute phase response to tissue injury. My work is funded by the British Heart Foundation Centre of Research Excellence (BHF-CRE).
