Brittannie Willis

  • PhD: Multi-omics investigation of glioblastoma using DESI imaging and LC-MS
  • October 2022 - Current

I am a PhD student who has always aspired to work in the field of brain tumour research. In my project, I am using DESI-Imaging and proteomics to investigate metabolite dependencies in glioblastoma and the effects of ADI-PEG20.

Other supervisors: Dr Elizabeth Want; Dr Nelofer Syed
