Profile

My research investigates ribosome stalling mechanisms in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, with a particular focus on identifying codons where stalling occurs and understanding the molecular processes governing this phenomenon. I employ techniques such as Orthogonal Organic Phase Separation (OOPS), tRNA-seq, ribosome profiling (ribo-seq), CRISPR, reporter constructs and proteomics to study ribosome-protein interactions and RNA-protein dynamics in stress conditions. The combination of genomic, proteomic and metabolomic approaches will reveal general principles applicable to higher eukaryotes.

I also supervise Part II and Part III research projects within the Natural Sciences Tripos.

Feel free to reach out - I’m always eager to discuss science, explore collaborations and opportunities, and connect with new people!
