Overview
I have worked within the respiratory medicine unit since it was started up in 2014. I began processing sputum samples for all our studies and still perform the sputum cell differentials. I work for Ian Pavord, Mona Bafadhel, Luzheng Xue and Timothy Hinks to ensure the laboratories are adhering to GLP. I also manage and maintain all studies and clincial trials that come through the RMU.
