About Me

Dave
I've always had a desire to understand the world around me. Science became a favourite school subject at an early age. At the age of 13 I won my first award; the Rhone Poulenc award for Excellence in Science. I studied Biological Science at Essex University and won my second scientific award, The BTG Project Prize for best immunology project. I have since worked as a Scientist in a small biotech company and am now a Scientific Officer at a cancer research organisation in London, UK. I am also a keen photographer and painter.
