Biography
Emily graduated with distinction from Bristol Veterinary School in 2015, having earlier completed an intercalated BSc in Cellular and Molecular Medicine, where she graduated with first class honours. Emily subsequently worked in a small animal veterinary hospital in West Sussex before completing a Post Graduate Diploma in Veterinary Clinical Practice as an intern at the Royal Veterinary College, London. In 2017, Emily elected to further pursue her research interests in the field of immunology and was awarded a Veterinary Clinical Primer by the Elizabeth Blackwell Institute. She is currently a GW4-CAT Research Training Fellow undertaking her PhD in cancer immunology. Her project aims to investigate immune dysregulation in cancer, and elucidate mechanisms by which cancers are able to evade the immune response and impair responses to novel checkpoint blockade immunotherapies.
