Biography

My role as Technical Tutor in Biomedical Science primarily encompasses teaching on BSc and MSc programmes within a laboratory setting. My students learn diagnostic tools to diagnose disorders such as blood disorders as well as research tools such as qPCR to detect the presence of HPV viruses in cancer cell lines. A wide range of cell and molecular biology techniques are taught and utilised within our extensive range of practicals such as RT-PCR, Western Blotting, Immunocytochemistry, flow cytometry, ELISA and Spectrophotometry.
