个人简介

I completed my PhD in 1999 looking at factors which affect cell interactions with novel biomaterials for corneal tissue replacement. I progressed from research fellow to Reader working on projects related to my research in ophthalmic biomaterials and then in adsorbent and smart polymer biomaterials as medical devices for organ replacement. I began an additional role working as Deputy Director of Postgraduate Studies in 2013 and then as Director of Postgraduate studies in 2015. I currently combine research activities in the Biomaterials and Medical Devices research group with academic oversight of PhD students as Director of Postgraduate Studies for Life, Health and Physical Sciences.
