Biography
I became a Reader in Hepatology & Gastroenterology at UCL in October 2010, having been a Senior Lecturer since 2003 and a Consultant Gastroenterologist in PancreaticoBiliary Medicine at UCLH from 2000. I undertook undergraduate studies in science (theoretical physics) and medicine at University of NSW, Sydney, with postgraduate training mainly at Guy’s and King’s College Hospital, London and advanced endoscopy training (ERCP and endoscopic ultrasound) in Paris, Amsterdam and Indianapolis. Over the last several years I have developed a clinical research programme aimed at improving the diagnosis and treatment of patients with liver and pancreaticobiliary malignancy, and lead an active clinical and laboratory-based research group based at the Royal Free Campus.
