Research interests
My background is a BSc (Hons) in Medical Science from the University of Exeter and a MSc in Nutrition from Karolinska Institute.
My research interests are on nutrient metabolism and metabolic health. I am pariticularly interested on how our metabolism can be reprogramme by metabolic conditions such as cancer.
I am currently a PhD student in molecular, genetic and lifecourse epidemiology (MGLE) investigating the role of diet, nutrition and adiposity on colorectal cancer development.
