About BreathPharma
Hi, I’m Daartey — a PhD candidate in Pharmaceutical Sciences, specialising in pharmacology with a focus on pediatric oncology. My research centres on two of the most challenging childhood cancers: neuroblastoma and medulloblastoma.
My work spans drug discovery, targeted therapies, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, epigenetics, and cell signalling mechanisms. I’m driven by the belief that understanding the molecular underpinnings of pediatric cancers is the key to building better, safer treatments for children.
BreathPharma is where I bring that world to life — writing about the science behind cancer pharmacology, the real experience of doing a PhD, and the broader human journey that makes it all meaningful. Whether you’re a researcher, a student, or simply someone curious about health and science, you’re welcome here.
