I must thank Chris at CLL Canada for providing us with a very interesting interview with my favorite CLL researcher. Of course he is based at Cardiff so I may appear biased. He is one hell of a nice guy too, he describes himself as; “a solid but unremarkable scientist” I am not sure I agree, he under-does himself, read his story. This explains his extraordinary passion for CLL research.
This is Dr Chris Pepper’s story:
• His reasons for becoming involved with CLL research
• His mentors
• His greatest achievements
• His work with BCL2
• The aims and outcomes of on-going experiments
• Why his research is entirely patient focused.
• What he sees as the benefits of this approach
• His next steps for his research
• How he sees this area developing in the future
