I am a clinical fellow in the lung unit at the Royal Marsden Hospital. I treat patients with lung cancer, mesothelioma and thymic carcinoma, in the standard of care, clinical trial and compassionate/expanded access settings. I have experience in the use of chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapy. I recruit patients to clinical trials and manage their care as they proceed on study. I actively participate in research meetings and the MDT. I have a particular interest in molecular-driven lung cancer and participate in the presentation and review of molecular results at our Genomics Tumour Advisory Board.
