Post-doctoral Research
Biography & Previous Work
I am continuing my work on embryonic temperature, developing two of my PhD thesis results chapters into a publication. I am also applying my single-cell transcriptomics expertise to investigate various immune cell lineage responses to pancreas disease vaccination and identify cell specific markers predictive of disease protection.
My undergraduate degree was in Biochemistry at the University of Glasgow. During this period, I developed a strong interest in Bioinformatics, leading me to complete a master’s degree in the subject after graduating. My PhD project examined the effect of higher than natural rearing temperatures in salmon aquaculture on the development and immune function of Atlantic salmon using bulk and single cell RNA-seq.

Outside of work, I unwind with chess, skydiving and judo.
