Extract from our Interview with Professor Nikita Gamper
You currently split your time between Leeds University and your role as Adjunct Professor of Pharmacology position at Hebei Medical University in China. What influenced you to collaborate with this team of scientists?
There is quite a list of reasons actually. But most important are the following: i) robust, dynamic and enthusiastic research group at HebMU; ii) strong cohort of PhD and Masters students; iii) collegiate and friendly environment; iii) generous intramural and extramural funding; iv) booming biotech industry giving access to affordable cutting edge technologies.
Nikita gave the ninth presentation in Metrion Biosciences External Speaker Series in February 2019, his interview can be found in our ConnectIONS blog article here.
