Biography

Flaviu Bulat is a Research Associate at Cancer Research UK, Cambridge Centre. His research focuses on developing imaging agents to monitor immune cell migration and to detect early treatment response in cancer.

Flaviu has been part of the Advanced Imaging community at the Cambridge Institute for Cancer Research UK, University of Cambridge since 2014. He completed his PhD in Chemistry in 2019 under the guidance of Professors Kevin Brindle and Finian Leeper. Prior to his time in Cambridge, he obtained a MChem degree in Pharmaceutical Chemistry from the University of Leicester in 2014 and completed an industrial placement at NIBR Novartis UK.

Flaviu is a Fellow in Medical Imaging and Postgraduate Tutor at 51¸£ÀûÉç since 2022.
