Biography
Graduated with a Master's in Biomedical Sciences in the First Class from the University of Oxford in 2025, completing a final year project on selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor discontinuation syndrome that earned an undergraduate pharmacology prize from the British Society of Pharmacology. Now conducting a PhD investigating the effect of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors at pancreatic islets and their wider effect on blood glucose regulation.
Research
Islet Biology Research Group
Our group studies the fundamental science of islets of Langerhans, from the molecular biology of beta-cells to their effects on whole body physiology. We research the mechanisms of islet dysfunction during type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes, identify novel therapeutic targets, and work to improve islet transplantation therapy for type 1 diabetes.
