I am an independant post-doctoral fellow hosted by Dr. Henning Stahlberg in the Laboratory of Biological Electron Microscopy at the EPFL, Switzerland. My formative training was in biochemistry, molecular biology and structural biology at the University of Western Australia in Perth, Australia. My research projects used X-ray crystallography, small angle x-ray scattering, and other biophysical techniques to investigate the structure, behaviour and molecular interactions of key proteins involved in human disease and neurodegeneration. My following post-doctoral training, obtained in Perth, Basel and Amsterdam, expanded my technical expertise to include multimodal imaging techniques including confocal fluorescence light microscopy and advanced electron microscopy. I have used these combined experiences to develop correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) pipelines for the structural investigation of disease pathology within post-mortem human brain. With a current focus on Parkinson’s disease, I am curious about the mechanisms of protein aggregation leading to the formation of neurodegenerative disease pathology.
