Her particular interests are the detection of early breast cancers, oncoplastic breast conservation, neo-adjuvant strategies, mastectomy with immediate reconstruction, symmetrisation, risk reduction and screening, including if patients come from a high-risk family background.

Miss Franks qualified from Imperial College with honours and took a year out for research, funded by the Medical Research Council, which resulted in a first-class BSc in pathology with basic medical science. She also has an interest in assessment and training and has completed an MSc in Medical Education and is a regular examiner for University College Hospital and the Royal Free Medical School.
