Research Interests:
Uveal melanoma: ocular treatment; prognostication; genetic tumour typing; counselling. Conjunctival melanoma: staging; treatment; translational studies. Vascular intraocular tumours.
Our research into the molecular biology of uveal melanomas has contributed to a profound change in our approach to patient management; several techniques I have developed have now been adopted elsewhere.
