Christian Groh

Currently

I am a post-doctoral research assistant in the department of the applied mathematics at the University of Leeds (UK). I am currently working on penetration of chemotherapeutic agents in cancerous tissue as part of a multidisciplinary team with Dr Matthew Hubbard, Dr Pam Jones, Dr Paul Loadman, Dr Raj Periasamy, Dr Roger Phillips (PI), Prof Brian Sleeman, Prof Stephen Smye and Prof Christopher Twelves.
