Congratulations to Ryan Howard for successfully defending his PhD thesis
Ryan was an ICB CDT/AstraZeneca PhD student who specialized in using a chemical biology approach for target identification of cellular proteins in cancer. This project was conducted in collaboration with Jamie Scott and Jeffrey Johannes (AstraZeneca), Dinis Calado (The Francis Crick Institute), Susana Godhino (The Barts Cancer Institute), and Rui Moreira and Cecília M. P. Rodrigues (Universidade de Lisboa).
Ryan successfully defended the research project in his viva voce today, which was conducted remotely.
Ryan has since accepted a postdoctoral research position at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich. We wish him all the best for the future.
Congratulations, Dr Howard!
