About
I earned my undergraduate degree from University College London (UCL), where I majored in synthetic organic chemistry and biomedical sciences. I conducted histological research on marker expression in brain glial cells and competed in the iGEM competition to design a sepsis diagnostic.
Research
My research focuses on the biological response to vascular grafts in sheep. In particular, I look at the inflammation, endothelial regeneration, and thrombosis of the implant. The aim of my project is to assess the performance of densified collagen hydrogel in a large animal model and provide proof-of-concept for longer pre-clinical studies.
