I am a senior lecturer in the Department of Molecular and Clinical Cancer Medicine, in the Institute of Systems, Molecular and Integrative Biology at the University of Liverpool in the UK.
My research interestes are focused on the regulation of gastrointestinal architecture and the maintenance of gut homeostasis. I am particularly interested in the processes that modulate the susceptibility to the development of drug-induced gastrointestinal toxicity and the loss of epithelial barrier integrity
