Biography
My career to date has focused on medical research and education in the tertiary sector, developing and managing ongoing relationships with key opinion leaders between academia, industry and community to foster opportunities for correspondence and exchange. My passion is educating, supervising and inspiring students to drive change and their own personal growth. Every student has their own unique and valuable life experiences and my goal is to adapt my techniques to ensure each student achieves a better understanding of scientific and medical research to achieve positive outcomes. I aim to provide students with a set of tools and principles that allow them to critically think and analyse complex issues to become students and contributors for the community. My research interests focus on understanding the mechanisms of cellular survival upon stress, and its role in biological processes that manifest into human diseases such as neurological disorders. My research uses proteomics to characterise post-translational modifications (including phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and glycosylation) to understand their role in cellular processes. High-throughput analyses of post-translational modifications is becoming more widespread due to their growing importance in biology, which puts me in a unique position to use my expertise to address this need.
