I am a hematology physician scientist fascinated by how nutrition and metabolism can cause DNA damage in our body, how this can affect ageing and cancer, and motivated to translate this knowledge to novel therapy. 

I am a MD PhD graduate from University of Cambridge, UK. My PhD was with Professor Michael Neuberger at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology focusing on B cell immunology. I completed my residency clinical training at King’s College Hospital in
