Project title - Development of novel dual-target agents to treat neuroblastoma that combine selective protein degradation with synergistic inhibition.
What were you doing before you joined the CSC Programme?
I had gotten my Master of Chemistry degree at Newcastle University and was doing an Erasmus postgraduate internship on biological lab techniques at Greifswald University in Germany.
What inspired you to choose this project?
I wanted to do this PhD because I loved the idea of combining my experience in chemistry and biology to design and synthesise a drug and then test it, in the hopes of being able to help with cancer research.
Interesting fact about yourself
I love animals and will be volunteering at my local mini zoo!
