He then moved to the lab of Dr Sue Cotterill at the Marie Curie Research Institute (Oxted\, Sur rey)\, where\, in association with the Institute of Cancer Research (Unive rsity of London)\, he embarked on a PhD in Biochemistry to understand how DNA replication was controlled by the Cell Cycle. His first post-doctoral position was held at the National Institute for Medical Research (now the Crick Institute\, London) where he worked with Dr Ann Ager and applied his expertise in protein biochemistry to the field of leukocyte adhesion and trafficking. He then moved to the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (UC L branch\, London) for his second postdoctoral position\, where he worked with Prof. Anne Ridley and gained extensive knowledge in cell biology\, wi th a main focus on leukocytes\, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. He then moved to the National Heart and Lung Institute at Imperial College London in 2005 as part of a Wellcome Trust Research Career Development Award\, w hich enabled him to continue his interests in leukocyte trafficking\, and to develop skills to analyse leukocyte behaviour in vitro and in vivo. He moved to King’s College London in 2009\, where he holds a tenured HEFCE- funded position. \n LOCATION:Babraham - The Brian Heap Seminar Room END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
