Joo has been the Senior Lecturer in Pathology at the School of Medicine and a Specialist in the Department of Anatomical Pathology in Liverpool Hospital since 2011. He completed his Pathology training and obtained Fellowship of the Royal Australasian College of Pathologists in late 2009. Joo was awarded PhD at the University of Sydney in 2011 for the thesis 'Predictive markers of radiotherapy response in rectal cancer'. Joo is a medical graduate of the University of Queensland.
