Sophie MacKay
Research Assistant
I did my integrated Master's undergrad at Oxford with a project focused on centrosomal proteins. I'm interested in exploring the complex interplay between the immune system and cancer. I am focusing on our project exploring circulating DNA in our cohort of patients. My next step will be to do a PhD as I am keen to continue in academia.
