DPhil Student
I am a Cancer Research UK funded DPhil student working in Prof. Vyas group. My project focuses on characterising the immune responses that drive Graft-versus-Leukemia (GvL) response following haematopoietic stem cell transplants for acute myeloid leukaemia. Previously I have studied pre-clinical medicine (2017-2020) at Somerville College, Oxford, where I have graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Medical Sciences.
