Profile
Research
I have always taken the focus for my research inspiration from clinical challenges and listening to patients with the aim of translating laboratory developments into the clinical setting in order to impact the everyday lives of patients.
The research I am leading currently focuses on:
- endometrial cancer genetics
- in particular their impact on the sensitivity of endometrial cancer to drug therapy (chemotherapy and immunotherapy)
- personalising endometrial cancer follow
- interventions to improve survivorship following treatment for cervical cancer
- surgeon ergonomics
