I'm exploring new applications of terahertz sensing in areas relevant to chemical engineering, in particular pharmaceutics, starting from generating novel fundamental insights to developing commercial solutions in collaboration with industrial partners.

Justin Bishop is a Research Associate in Transport Analysis in the Centre for Sustainable Road Freight and the Energy Efficient Cities Initiative at the University of Cambridge Department of Engineering. He was a Visiting Research Associate in the Transport Studies Unit at the University of Oxford. His research interests include electric power generation, road transport and the built environment.

Christian Frezza is an MRC Programme Leader at the MRC Cancer Unit in Cambridge. He studied Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Padova, Italy, and gained his MSc in 2002, after a period of research on mitochondrial toxicity induced by photoactivable anticancer drugs.

Christian then joined the laboratory of Luca Scorrano in Padova to start a PhD on mitochondrial dynamics and apoptosis. In 2008 he moved to the Beatson Institute of Cancer Research in Glasgow, as recipient of an EMBO Long Term Fellowship, where he investigated the role of mitochondrial defects in tumorigenesis. Christian’s research is focussed on the understanding of cellular metabolism and the intricacies of the process of cellular transformation, particularly focusing on the metabolic relation between cancer cells and the surrounding tissues. His major goal now is to exploit this biochemical knowledge to pioneer novel therapeutic strategies for cancer.

I am a physicist working in Cambridge University; my interests are across Soft Matter and Biological Physics. More on my website: http://people.bss.phy.cam.ac.uk/~pc245/

Florian Markowetz holds degrees in Mathematics and Philosophy from University of Heidelberg and a PhD in Computational Biology from Free University Berlin. He was affiliated with the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) in Heidelberg and the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin. The Max Planck Society honoured his PhD thesis with an Otto-Hahn medal. He pursued post-doctoral research at Princeton University at the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics. Since 01/2009 he is a group leader at the CRUK Cambridge Institute at the University of Cambridge. In 2014 he was promoted to tenured senior group leader.
