He began his career as a scientist focused on drug discovery and pharmacology for oncological indications, working in both academia and industry, before moving into regulatory affairs more than ten years ago. He specialises in the clinical development of cell and gene therapies and, at Boyds, will support regulatory affairs activities alongside clinical operations.
