POSITION / GROUP / CENTRE
PhD student in Ovarian
Cancer Biomarkers Group, Centre for Cancer Research
I WAS BORN IN
Tehran, Iran
BEFORE HUDSON I WAS DOING my PhD in Diabetes
department at the Alfred, I changed my project and my supervisor to do cancer
research here at Hudson Institute.
THE BEST PART OF MY JOB IS thinking that my research
can actually make a difference!
I CHOSE THIS CAREER PATH BECAUSE cancer is the biggest health
related fear in today’s society, it is rewarding to be able to find some
answers.
IF I WASN’T DOING THIS JOB I WOULD BE a florist.
MY FIRST JOB WAS a bookkeeper at a small
community library.
MY FAVOURITE MOVIE/TV IS at the moment I’m obsessed with
the Black Mirror series.
I AM WORKING ON targeting the 'leader cells' in ovarian cancer, these are the cells responsible for the tumour invasion.
THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY YEAR SO FAR receiving the Dr Sue Fowler
Scholarship in Ovarian Cancer.
I AM LOOKING FORWARD to buying our own place in
Melbourne.
MY FAVOURITE PLACE IN THE WORLD Hard to decide! But I love
to look at the city’s skyline, so it could either be Point Ormond in Melbourne or
Tehran’s roof lookout.
OUTSIDE OF WORK I ENJOY playing badminton and my
favourite board game: Scythe.
MY FAVOURITE PLACE TO EAT anywhere with friends and
Thai food!
THE BEST ADVICE I'VE RECEIVED ... No matter how long you have
traveled in the wrong direction, you can always turn around!
