- Thesis title: Developing an in vivo screen for inhibitors of protein-protein interactions
- Supervisor: Dr Tomlinson, Professor Sheena Radford, Dr David Brockwell
Profile
I graduated with a BSc in Biochemistry from the University of Manchester in 2017, and subsequently started my PhD here at the University of Leeds. I am a BBSRC-funded student working in the Astbury Centre for Structural Biology.
Research interests
I am developing a cell-based screen to test Affimer inhibitors of protein-protein interactions. I am currently using protein complementation and aggregation systems to modify assays for this novel function, in order to better characterise Affimer proteins developed.
Qualifications
- BSc Biochemistry
