Personal profile
Career
Since completion of my PhD in 1999 I have undertaken postdoctoral research roles at the Medical College of Wisconsin, USA, the Dunn Human Nutrition Unit in Cambridge and the BBSRC Institute of Food Research in Norwich. I joined the Norwich Medical School at UEA as a Senior Research Associate in 2007, working with Professor Fairweather-Tait on selenium and prostate cancer research and subsequently joined Professor Colin Cooper's research team in 2012 to pursue research on biomarkers of prostate cancer.
