I am a molecular geneticist investigating the development of cancer, the mechanisms controlling apoptosis, and how impaired apoptosis contributes to tumorigenesis and the resistance of cancer cells to therapy.
I am a stem cell scientist working on the biology of human embryonic stem cells and their differentiation into cells of mesodermal (blood, endothelium and cardiomyocyte) and endodermal (pancreatic islet cells) lineages.
I am a cellular biologist studying lineage commitment and differentiation in the mammary gland. Key interests include defining transcriptional regulators that are important for mammary gland development and oncogenesis, and the characterisation of stem cells and other epithelial cell types in breast tissue.
