I graduated from the University of Leeds with a BSc in Pharmacology (with industrial experience) in 2014, and from UCL with a PhD in Cellular Neuroscience in 2018.
My current research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegnerative disease, specifically the Tauopathies, using cell and molecular biological techniques. My PhD was concerned with analysing the release of Tau protein from neurons. I have recently began modelling the proteostasis of Tau, with a view to understanding what affects the degradation, aggregation and release of Tau from neurons, and how this may relate to disease contexts.
I have taught second year undergraduate students on the fundamentals of neuropharmacology. I have also marked exam scripts and third undergraduate research projects.
