Staff


Tobias Zech
Facility Academic Lead

Tobi's current research is aiming to understand the mechanisms that enable cells to move in a three dimensional tissue environment in health and especially during tumour progression. He has been Director of the CCI since 2021.

Tom Waring
Imaging Technician

Tom has joined the team to offer technical support for facility users. He completed his master�s degree in Biological Sciences at Durham University, which used confocal and super resolution microscopy to study nuclear import. Tom then joined the University of Liverpool in 2016 as a PhD student working on a project that utilises various microscopy techniques, including Atomic Force Microscopy, to study Hutchinson Gilford Progeria Syndrome.
