Biography

LLB,LLM, FHEA

I am a part-time Mjur candidate at Durham law School, having completed my Bachelor of Law with Criminology (LLB) and Master of Human Rights Law (LLM) at Nottingham Trent University.

At present, I am a senior law lecturer at NTU, teaching and leading the Beginning & Ending of Life Issues (LLM), and Medical Law (LLB). I also deliver tutorial sessions and lectures on the Law of Trusts (LLB) and am a member of the Academic Irregularity Team.

Research

Supervised by Professor Shaun Pattinson and Professor Deryck Beyleveld, my research will use the Principle of Generic Consistency as the supreme moral theory to provide a coherent interpretive tool and a moral critique of the international regulatory frameworks that currently apply to Stem Cell Editing.
