Biography

I hold overall responsibilty for the organisation, delivery and examination of the Clinical Pathology Course.  As well as being Senior Examiner for Pathology for Years 4, 5 and 6 of the Cambridge Medical Course, I also lead on the Year 5 written assessments for the Final MB Part II.  I have a significant interest in medical education, in particular in the use of learning technology to enhance pathology learning.

I provide clinical sessions in paediatric pathology at CUHNHSFT.  My particular fields of interest are solid and haematological paediatric neoplasms.
