I teach on the Neuroscience degree (BSc and MSci), and deliver sessions on the Medical degree. For a number of years, I led the large first-year module Fundamentals of Neuroscience. From Oct 2023, I will be running a new module on Experimental design and practical Neuroscience, aligning my research skills with my teaching interests, as well as a new 4th-year module on Current research in Neuroscience. I act as Deputy Degree Director for Neuroscience, and chair of the Learning Curriculum Forum for Neuroscience. I also Chair the inclusive curriculum working group for Life Sciences and have sat on the Faculty working group on the same subject. From this, we have developed the faculty inclusive curriculum toolkit.

Current Research

I have a background in biological sciences, with a focus on neuroscience, and have been working on phenotyping rodent models of disease for over 20 years. My current focus is on models of myotonic dystrophy, and I have a growing interest in CDK12 and CDK13 knock-out and mutation models. Over my career, I have worked with transgenic mouse models and surgical models of Huntington's disease, stroke and myotonic dystrophy. I have a keen interest in improving the standards of preclinical research, and as such set up and co-organised the inaugural UK Preclinical Stroke Symposium for 10 years. I am also a member of the National Centre for the Replacement, Refinement and Reduction of Animals in Research (NC3Rs) working group on animal models of stroke which published the IMPROVE guidelines for rodent stroke studies. With my expertise in in vivo studies I have managed, as Co-investigator, the in vivo aspects of large collaborative grants from the MRC (DPFS, 拢2.4 million) and Wellcome Trust (Seeding drug discovery, 拢3 million), as well as managing PI grants.
