`
`SUPPORT OF WOMEN AND SCIENCE
`
`I am keen on ensuring that woman have equal opportunities in science as men do to ensure the most
`effective utilization of the work force. Below are a number of recent initiatives I have been involved in.
`
`I recorded a short video (available on the internet) on women in science (for Ada Lovelace day, 2013)
`(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4QVzCU7MHQ).
`
`Featured in the Pharmaceutical Journal article (2013) entitled ‘Celebrating the work of women in

`
`Organised the first Woman in HealthCare Leadership Symposium (2014) Royal Pharmaceutical
`Society and Academy of Pharmaceutical Sciences, London. The inaugural meeting was so successful
`that it is now anticipated that these meetings will be run on an annual basis. The second meeting to be
`run October 2015.
`
`Featured as 1 of 6 woman in the Pharmaceutical Journal article (2014) entitled ‘Woman inspiring
`change in pharmacy’.
`
`I have acted as a reviewer for Athena Swan bronze award applications (2015).
`
`Inspirational speaker at a Springboard Woman’s Development Day (2015) held at King’s College
`London.
`
`ACADEMIC AND OTHER LEADERSHIP
`
`Administration within KCL
`
`Head of the Pharmaceutical Biophysics Research Group (2002-present)
`I have line-management responsibility for 6 full time academic staff, plus emeritus staff, associated
`post-doctoral fellow and PhD students.
`
`Member of Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences Executive (2002-2013)
`As Head of the Pharmaceutical Biophysics Group, I have been a member of the executive committee
`(i.e. governing body) of the Institute of Pharmaceutical Science. The executive, which meets monthly
`and comprises of
`the heads of
`research groups,
`is responsible for overseeing the institute's
`governance, research strategy and policy, including horizon scanning for funding opportunities, PhD
`student management and health and safety.
`
`Member of Joint Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences/Clinical Academic Group Executive
`(2013-present)
`I am a member of the merged Institute of Pharmaceutical Science/Clinical Academic Group executive.
`
`Teaching Roles within KCL
`
`I have wide ranging teaching and lecturing experience, both at the undergraduate and postgraduate
`level within King's College London and in particular the Institute of Pharmaceutical Science. My
`teaching includes membranes and drug transport; surface and interfacial phenomena; physical
`chemistry of micelles; physical chemistry of emulsions; surfactant systems; particulates as drug delivery
`vehicles; biopharmaceutics and bio-pharmacy, gastrointestinal drug absorption;
`transdermal drug
`delivery, evidence-based medicine; gene delivery. Since taking up my half time role at the RPS I have
`less contact time with the undergraduate and postgraduate taught students, and currently no major
`teaching administrative role. I am still involved, however, in course development and was one of a small
`team who lead the recent successful accreditation by the General Pharmaceutical Council for the
`Pharmacy course at King’s College London. I also give lectures to final year students on a variety of
`subjects including evidence based medicine and gene delivery.
`
`Course Development within KCL
`
`7
`
`LUPIN EX1055, Page 7
`
`

`
`I am an innovative teacher, who has introduced a variety of new teaching methods, such as problem-
`based learning, to the Pharmacy Course as well as initiating new schemes such as the skills-based
`topic weeks – weeks in which all lectures and practical’s were suspended and the students focused on
`particular transferable skills such as science communication and statistical analysis.
`
`I have recently been involved in developing a series of 4th year student debates on “real-life” science
`into practice dilemmas which was a finalist in a National Education Prize (Times Higher Education
`Supplement) and won the KCL award for innovative teaching in 2011. The student debates have been
`so successful that they are now being rolled out to include other UK Schools of Pharmacy.
`
`Other course design, development and implementation includes a series of novel practical classes for
`MPharm undergraduate degree, including the MPharm (III) Formulation Optimization practical course in
`which small groups of students are given a formulation to prepare using optimization techniques and
`under as near industrial development laboratory conditions as possible. This innovative course has
`subsequently been copied by at least one other School of Pharmacy.
`
`In 2000, I initiated a major review of the undergraduate MPharm course, which resulted in a complete
`re-write of our undergraduate course to run in cross-discipline therapeutic streams. This review was
`achieved by running a series of one day workshops in which all staff participated. The result of which
`was that KCL was the first UK Pharmacy School
`to teach across the traditional streams of
`pharmaceutical chemistry, pharmaceutics, pharmaceutical biology and pharmacy practice and was the
`first integrated course. I was one of a team of four that lead and coordinated this major re-write of the
`undergraduate MPharm course. The concept of our course has now been copied by several other UK
`Schools of Pharmacy.
`
`Other Teaching Roles
`
`I have been an invited lecturer on external University courses including the 4th year Drug Delivery
`Elective on the MPharm degree and the MSc in Drug Delivery at the School of Pharmacy, Brunswick
`Square, University of London, the final year Pharmacy undergraduate course at Damascus University,
`Syria and the International MSc in Pharmaceutical Technology, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok,
`Thailand (biannually for the past 14 years). Invited lecturer on teaching methodology courses (eg the
`teaching of basic mathematics to pharmacy undergraduates) run by the Academic Pharmacy Group of
`the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain for University lecturers. I also teach (lecture and
`tutorials) on the biannual Oxford School of Neutron Scattering (held at Oxford University).
`
`External examiner for other Pharmacy degree courses in the UK including: Liverpool John Moores
`University (2001-2005); University of Central Lancashire (2007-2011); University of Belfast (2009-
`2012); University of Strathclyde (2013-to date).
`
`Other Course Development
`
`I was advisor on the development of the new Pharmaceutical Technology course of the Pharmacy
`Degree at
`the new Sekem School of Pharmacy, Egypt (2007-8).
`I also acted as reviewer of
`the
`Pharmacy Courses at Reading University (2013) and Strathclyde (2013) prior to their reaccreditation
`visit by the General Pharmaceutical Council.
`I was involved with the course review of Brighton
`Pharmacy Department (2013).
`
`RESEARCH
`
`Experienced researcher, publishing in high impact journals in the fields of physical/colloid chemistry,
`pharmaceutical science and nanomedicine. Pioneered (with Dr DJ Barlow, KCL) the use of neutron
`scattering techniques to aid the understanding and the improved design of drug and gene delivery
`systems. Before then, with the exception of neutron crystallography, neutron scattering was not used in
`the pharmaceutical science community. As recognition of my research expertise I was awarded in 2009
`a Fellowship of the RPS for Distinction in the Science of Pharmacy (less than 1% of the membership
`are awarded Fellowships) and an Eminent Fellowship of the Academy of Pharmaceutical Sciences
`(currently there are only 19 such Eminent Fellows).
`
`Successful at obtaining UK Research Council (including BBSRC, EPSRC and NERC) and Charity
`(Leverhulme Trust, Maplethorpe Trust) money for fundamental research studies. Significant long-term

`
`notably with
`several Pharmaceutical Companies, most
`between
`collaborations
`on-going
`GlaxoSmithKline and AstraZeneca who have provided funding for both fundamental and applied
`research.Several long term, very successful research collaborations with academics both within King’s
`(Dr BJ Barlow (> 60) and Dr CD Lorenz85,87,95,104,114,116 and within other Universities (eg Professor HC
`Hailes & Dr AB Tabor41,58,74,77,94,103,119, Department of Chemistry, University College London, London, Dr
`SE McLain85,95,104,114,116, Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford), UK Research Institutions
`(e.g. Drs R Heenan37,40,51,53,93,98,111, AV Hughes69,78,96,100,112 and SM King83,110,117, Rutherford Appleton
`Laboratories, Didcot) and overseas Research Institutions (e.g. Dr G Fragneto,55,80,81,101,107 and Dr R
`Campbell96,100 Institute Laue Langevin, Grenoble, France, Dr B Boyd84, Monash University, Melbourne,
`Australia, Professor F Szoka92, UCSF, California, USA, Professor J Bouwstra90,109,120, University of
`Leiden, Holland). Invited speaker at many National and International Conferences.
`
`Successfully supervised 36 research students (all of whom were successful and submitted within 4
`years of registration). 4 of my former PhD students have taken up academic posts in the UK, with a
`further 4 taking up academic positions abroad. Over half of the 21 undergraduate vacation project
`students I have supervised have subsequently gone on to undertake postgraduate research studies.
`Similarly almost half of the MSc project students that I have supervised (ie 13 out of a total of 30) have
`gained a distinction and/or gone on to study for a PhD, many with myself as supervisor. I was awarded a
`KCL Graduate School Supervisory Excellence Award in 2012.
`
`Research highlights have been published in the scientific press/literature e.g. our recent work on the
`fate of nanoparticles in the environment received considerable media coverage as did our research on
`the mechanism of action of the antifungal drug, amphotericin B.
`
`Research Grants
`
`Research Council, Charity and Industrial Grants
`
`Between 1987 and 2005, 48 grants totaling in excess of £3,500,000 were obtained (neutron beam time
`awarded directly via the facility is not included in this total, see below for details of these awards). Of
`these 48
