Biography:

I studied Genetics (with a year in industry) at the University of York (UK) where I worked in the group of Prof Dame Ottoline Leyser FRS DBE for my final year research project exploring the genetic basis of shoot architecture. I then won a Sainsbury Studentship in Plant Sciences to fund my PhD with Prof Brendan Davies at the University of Leeds (UK) working on nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) in plants. I then became a post-doc at the University of California, Berkeley (USA), initially working with Prof Daniel Zilberman and Prof Steven Brenner on splicing, before continuing at Berkeley as part of the Center for RNA Systems Biology studying the NMD pathway in humans. Now I am applying my knowledge of gene regulation to building synthetic tools for plant engineering with Prof Ryan Lister.
