Speaker Details

Dr Angela George

I completed my specialty training in Medical Oncology in New Zealand, and began as a consultant Medical Oncologist, with a particular interest in ovarian and breast cancer.  I subsequently moved to The Royal Marsden Hospital, where I worked in the Gynae unit, then began research into the germline genetics of ovarian cancer.  During this time, I led the implementation of the Mainstreaming Cancer Genetics programme within the Gynae and Breast units.  After completion of my thesis, I was appointed as a Consultant in Oncogenetics and Medical Oncologist (Gynae) at The Royal Marsden.  In addition to my work in the Gynae Unit, I am Clinical Lead for Cancer Genetics and the Mainstreaming Cancer Genetics programme and Clinical Director of Genomics at The Royal Marsden.  I am also continuing my research into the genetics of ovarian and breast cancer.
