Welcome Emma Zhang!

Hello! My name is Emma Zhang, I am joining David Gatfield Lab as a PhD student. I was born and raised in China, and moved to Canada to complete my Bachelor degree at McGill University. After, I moved to London and did a Master’s degree at Imperial College. At the moment, I am working as a researcher assistant at University College London Cancer Institute in a Cancer Immunotherapy lab.
I am passionate about cancer biology and learning new things including RNA biology and Bioinformatics! I am super excited to join Gatfield Lab, and work on RNA biology in liver cancer. 
Outside of the lab, I have many hobbies as well. I like arts in general and do plein-air paintings on a sunny day. I also like baking, ballet, exploring new coffee shops, dinner parties etc.:)
I’m super excited to meet everyone! Please feel free to come say hi on the 5th floor!
