About Gary Lawson

With over 20 years of work experience in biomedical sciences, I am a passionate and dedicated researcher and educator who strives to advance the field of cancer therapeutics and inspire the next generation of scientists. I am currently the Principal Learning Officer at Leeds Beckett University, where I lead the development and delivery of innovative and engaging learning programmes for undergraduate and postgraduate students in the School of Biomedical Sciences. I am committed to fostering a culture of excellence, collaboration, and diversity in the academic community, and to creating positive impacts on society through my research and teaching.In my previous role as a Research Scientist at the University of Bradford, I contributed to the successful execution of cell culture assays for both internal and external projects, and played a key role in the management and operation of various laboratory facilities and equipment. I have extensive experience and skills in cell biology, biochemistry, and cell culture, as well as in the use of advanced microscopy techniques such as electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. I have also been involved in the delivery of microbiology courses and workshops for staff and students from other schools and colleges, demonstrating my ability to communicate complex scientific concepts and methods in an accessible and engaging way.
