Dr Qian An is a Post Doctorate Researcher at the University of Portsmouth, investigating brain tumour cell biology and the genetics of different subgroups of brain tumour.

Funded by Brain Tumour UK in the research centre managed by Professor Geoff Pilkington, Dr Qian An is examining variations in the way brain tumours respond to drugs.

“My research will help expand our understanding of brain tumours and ultimately provide improved management for patients with brain tumours,” says Dr An.
