Tarian is a Biochemistry graduate from the University of Bath. Formerly working in analysis of pharmaceutical and healthcare products/ingredients, he has gained experience in a broad range of analytical techniques and instrument use.

During his degree he found interest in cancer mechanisms, and novel drug development, which motivated him to join Phytome Life Sciences and be a part of the exciting bio-pharmaceutical research undertaken here.

Outside of work he enjoys regular runs, playing badminton, and baking and occasionally partaking in surfing, drawing, and exploring all that Cornwall has to offer.
