Staff Profile

I founded the Diagnostic & Therapeutic Technologies Research Group (D&TT) in 1987. The work of D&TT is targeted towards Healthcare Engineering, Science and Technology. The overall aim is to improve rapid clinical diagnostic technologies and to engineer technological approaches which can help to elucidate the molecular pathways that cause degenerative diseases.

I retired in July 2018.
