Experience

Postgraduate Researcher - Wrexham University (MAUMMS) - Wrexham

(2025-01 - 2026-12)

Independent project: Investigate changes in inflammatory biomarkers in prostate cancer patients across surgical treatment time points: T0 (pre‑surgery), T1 (day of surgery), T2 (post‑surgery). Use coded patient information (tumour stage/grade, cholesterol profile if available) to contextualise biomarker profiles.

Laboratory method: ELISA assays (manual sandwich ELISA using pre‑filled reagent strips & SPR) to quantify inflammatory proteins in serum as equivalent method. Sample handling (serum thawing, aliquoting, storage) and data analysis correlating biomarker levels with clinical parameters.
