Dr Madhusudan, who gained his MBBS from the Tamil Nadu Dr MGR Medical University in 1994, is the Clinical Associate Professor in Medical Oncology at the School of Molecular Medical Sciences and a Consultant Medical Oncologist at Nottingham Cancer Centre.
The Goulstonian lecturership is one of the college's most prestigious lectureships and is the highest honour that can be awarded to a young fellow for academic excellence. The Lecture dates back to 1635 and has considerable historical significance.
Dr Madhusudan will deliver the Goulstonian lecture at the Royal College of Physicians later this year on his translational research targeting DNA base excision repair, an exciting new approach for personalised cancer therapy.
