    Biographical details

    I am a Reader in Radiobiology at King's College London. I started my team (www.radlab.uk) at King’s College London in 2015, having in the past worked at the Radboud UMC the Netherlands as a postdoc (2011-2014, radionuclide imaging), the University of Oxford as a postdoc (2009-2011, radionuclide therapy) and the University of St Andrews as a PhD student (2006-2009, X-ray radiobiology).

    Research interests

    The team’s research focusses on determining how radiation and radioactivity used for therapy in cancer affect either the cells they are targeting or off-target cells and determine their radiation dose-biological effect relationship. Also explored are combination therapies. This information is then used to determine how we can best use radionuclides and radiopharmaceuticals in the clinic. Research is mostly in vitro (cells), in silico, and preclinical.
