I am a paediatric oncologist at Leeds Children’s Hospital and treat children and teenagers with a range of tumours including brain tumours.
My areas of interest are neuroblastoma, early phase clinical trials and brain tumours. I am the UK lead for the current European high risk neuroblastoma clinical trial in the UK. I manage the portfolio of early phase clincal trials for paediatric oncology patients in Leeds. These trials are mainly for patients with relapsed tumours where standard treatments have failed and patients and parents are wanting to try more experimental treatments. I am one of the paediatric oncologists who specialises in the treatment of children and teenagers with brain tumours.
