Dr. Camilla Pang holds a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from University College London and is a Postdoctoral Scientist specializing in Translational Bioinformatics. At the age of eight, Camilla was diagnosed with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and ADHD at 26-years-old. She struggled to understand the world around her, and once asked her mother if there was "an instruction manual for humans".
Her first book, Explaining Humans, is a guide to navigating life, love and relationships using the lessons she’s learned in her scientific career so far, drawing on examples from how the different proteins in the human body can reflect the different roles in a social group, to the way how light refracts through a prism helping her to break down fear into something manageable.
Camilla completed her degree in biochemistry at the University of Bristol, and went on to gain a Ph.D. in bioinformatics from University College London. Her current work uses disease and cancer data, along with machine learning methods, to find patterns that can be used in healthcare and lead to the development of therapies.
Camilla is an active volunteering researcher for cancer research groups at the Francis Crick Institute in London, and also works on her own projects within psychology, science communication, and the arts.
