Biomedical Research Team - Lab Based Research at The University of Kent
​
The Department of Urology at East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust is establishing a State of the Art Research Platform for Integrated Translational Research in collaboration with the Biomedical Sciences Department of the University of Kent.
Dr Tim Fenton (Senior Research Scientist) and Mr Sashi Kommu (Consultant Uro-oncological Surgeon & Senior Researcher) perform laboratory research in understanding the molecular changes that occur as cancers develop and evade destruction by our immune system. Professor Michelle Garret and Dr Jill Shepherd work in close collaboration with the unit to ensure optimal coupling of clinical and laboratory based teaching. Their goal is to apply these findings to enable earlier diagnosis and more effective therapy.
