She is a group leader in clinical biomarkers and a lecturer of analytical chemistry. She studied chemistry as a mature student at King's College London, she trained in Smith Kline Beecham on turbulent flow HPLC, and then did an MSci using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In 2004, she received a PhD by working on micro LC-MS at GSK and Imperial College London. At the University of Pavia, she was a Fellow studying molecule interactions. After this, she joined as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Imperial College in the Department of Medicine.
