University Position

Principal Investigator

Dr Harry Bulstrode is pleased to consider applications from prospective PhD students.

Interests

I’m interested in neural stem cells and their microenvironment interactions. Clinically my focus is stereotactic neurosurgery, which offers exciting potential for targeted brain delivery of new treatments.
