My Research Supervision

Through UNSW and other Universities I am currently main supervisor of three PhD students with projects into prostate, brain and breast cancer. I am also co-supervising three PhD projects into lung and pancreatic cancer. I have successfully supervised ILP an BSC (Med) Hon projects (2016, 2018,2019) and the students were awarded several best poster/oral presentation prizes at high profile conferences. All students have authored publications, in fact one ILP student just published a first author journal publication in an impact factor 5.7 journal, while Phd students will generally average 2-3 first author and several middle author journal publications.
