Porterhouse Medical is thrilled to welcome the latest member of our global scientific services team, Jade Roberts.

Jade has joined our growing agency as an Associate Medical Writer. She brings strong scientific and educational expertise to her new role, as she holds a BSc (Hons) from the University of Reading and an MRes from Imperial College London in Biomedical Sciences.

She has, also, recently completed her PhD in Oncology at the University of Reading -where her research explored how calcium signalling and mechanical cues converge to regulate cell-to-cell communication, demonstrating that similar signalling strategies can mediate malignancy differently in aggressive cancer models such as breast carcinoma and glioblastoma.

Alongside her doctoral training, Jade was awarded Associate Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA) in recognition of her contributions to teaching and learning support in higher education.

She has valuable experience translating complex scientific data into engaging materials for diverse audiences, through her work with HaemAnalytica, Aspire Scientific, the Centre for Integrative Neuroscience and Neurodynamics (CINN), and Klarity Health Library.

In her spare time, Jade is a plant enthusiast and spends much of her free time attempting to grow carnivorous plants – some would say a pitcher-perfect hobby!😊

Please join us in welcoming Jade to the Porterhouse family. We are thrilled to her expertise and passion on the team.

At Porterhouse Medical, our people make the difference. Our globally acclaimed agency works hard to develop its talented teams, a feature that has been recognised through our achievement of the Gold accreditation in July 2019 from Investors in People , the international standard for people management. Our mix of scientific expertise, creativity and industry knowledge ensures that our powerful insight-driven, scientific and medical communications stand out from the rest.
