Biography
Senior Lecturer at Macquarie University Fei did her undergraduate studies in Chemistry at John Carroll University (University Heights, Ohio), and then moved to New Haven, Connecticut for her PhD studies in Organic Chemistry at Yale. After her PhD, she moved to Boston, Massachusetts as an NIH postdoctoral fellow to work on new biosynthetic approaches in molecular medicine at the Harvard Medical School. In 2004, Fei moved from Boston to Sydney and is currently a teaching/research academic at Macquarie. The current phase of her research focuses on developing efficient synthetic methods for accessing small molecules with useful properties in chemistry and biology. Her long-term interest in chemical proteomics along with its applications in basic biological discovery and medicine is being pursued in close collaboration with the Australian Proteomics Analysis Facility (APAF).
