ApconiX Welcomes Dr Emma Bishop
We are delighted to welcome Dr Emma Bishop who joins the Safety Science Group (SSG) as a Senior Scientist Immunotoxicologist and will be working with Dr Sean Hammond, Immunotoxicology Lead at ApconiX.
Emma graduated from the University of Birmingham with a degree in Biomedical Science. For her dissertation, Emma worked on investigating the plasticity of Th17 cells and type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) through regulation of transcription factors. She found it a great introduction to immunology.
She followed with a PhD through a doctoral training program at the same university.
Having worked in industry for a few years, Emma was very keen to go back to her roots of immunology and the immunotoxicologist role seemed ideal.
Sean commented “It is great to have Emma on board. Emma’s strong background in immunology and scientific thinking skillset are already proving valuable in supporting client projects.” hashtag#drugsafety hashtag#drugdiscovery
