What I do
I have expertise in antibody and human viruses-related bio-medical research. I have been on a maternity career break, and I am currently applying for fellowships to work on the molecular mechanisms of viral infections during embryogenesis.
Research Interests:
Cellular and molecular virology, anti-viral pharmacology, antibody, stem cell and iPS, cancer, embryogenesis, congenital diseases and therapeutics.
Past projects at MRC LMB:
-
1) Antibody labelling for targeted cell killing as an advance for current chemotherapies.
-
2) The application of antibodies targeting cellular proteins (e.g. tau aggregation) for proteasome degradation via TRIM21, to develop new therapeutics for protein aggregation diseases (e.g. Alzheimer's).
