Research Assistant

I have an interdisciplinary background with experience in both experimental and computational research.
My work is in the Integrative Systems Biology (ISB) group and Bojmar Lab.

My Research

My studies include a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Biomedical Informatics and a Master of Science in Protein Biotechnology.

My work in the Integrative Systems Biology (ISB) group has been focused on understanding the intracellular metabolic changes linked to Alzheimer's disease. I work on the modelling side of a method called 13C Metabolic Flux Analysis (MFA), to study metabolic changes in brain cells during disease.

I am also working in Bojmar Lab investigating cell metabolism. My research focuses on metabolic competition involving creatine between cancer and immune cells. We also develop tumour and liver organoid models to explore how and when liver metastasis occurs.
