Phil Haynes
Phil is a second year PhD student in Bart's group and is co-supervised by Prof. Ramon Vilar (Imperial College London, UK). He holds a MPhys (Hons) in Physics from the University of Exeter. Prior to university, his interest in merging physics and biological problems came into life after spending time at CERN (Geneva, Switzerland) and PTCRi (University of Oxford, UK). His PhD project combines AFM and single-molecular FRET to study G-Quadruplex DNA and DNA-PARP1 interactions with implications for anti-cancer therapy. He aims to further improve AFM resolution (spatial and temporal) as part of a close collaboration with Bruker in Santa Barbara, California. Phil is part of the CDT for Advanced Characterisation of Materials.
