DrPhillip Lawton

I am a Teaching Fellow on the Medical Biosciences programme, with involvement on the Lab Pod 1 and Statistics modules for 1st Year students. I studied Medical Biochemistry as an undergraduate before completing my PhD at Imperial College in Clinical Medicine Research, which focused on novel cancer therapeutic target discovery through bioinformatic methods. I then moved to study the miRNA loading onto AGO2 in response to chemotherapeutic agents in ovarian cancer during my post-doc.

My interests are broad, though I remain most engaged with oncology research and Bioinformatics.
