Kirsty is a Research Associate at BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute, Vancouver, Canada, working on precision therapies for difficult-to-treat childhood cancers, as well as research communication. Previously she was a postdoctoral researcher at the Wellcome-MRC Cambridge Stem Cell Institute, University of Cambridge, researching differentiation therapies for the paediatric cancer neuroblastoma. She completed her PhD in Professor Pollard’s lab at the Centre for Regenerative Medicine, Edinburgh, researching the molecular drivers of cancer stem cells in an aggressive adult brain cancer called glioblastoma. She undertook my undergraduate and Masters studies in Natural Sciences (specialising in Biochemistry) at Churchill College, University of Cambridge.
