I am the scientific group leader for RNA research at Norwich Medical School. I first trained as a biomedical scientist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge before completing my PhD at the University of East Anglia with a focus on small RNA biology and bone cancer. I undertook postdoctoral training at UEA expanding on this work, developing single-cell RNA sequencing in circulating tumour cells, before setting up my own group in 2018.  

Our lab is based in the Biomedical Research Centre (BMRC) on the UEA main campus. We use molecular techniques and computational approaches to study RNA-based gene silencing. Our research is a mix of basic and translational with projects ranging from fundamental mechanisms to drug development. The weekly lab meeting is shared with several other groups interested in molecular disease mechanisms.
