Associate faculty WIMM, Wellcome investigator and EMBO member, Visiting scientist Janelia Research Campus. Senior research fellow Reuben and Jesus colleges.
Lab manager and Senior Postdoctoral Researcher
I am Ilan's lab manager and I also work on a large-scale screen seeking new RNA targets that localise in the Drosophila nervous system. I also work on ITVs quiz show The Chase.
Advanced microscopy and Senior Postdoctoral Researcher
I work using state-of-the-art and advanced imaging techniques as well as developing improved imaging methods and quantitative image analysis to investigate the molecular mechanism of RNA transport in Drosophila tissues.
Leverhulme Postdoctoral Researcher
The development of the brain requires a complex series of cell fate decisions, frequently involving transcriptional regulation of key factors. I am interested in assessing how post-transcriptional processes contribute to the precise timing and outcome of these developmental transitions.
Biochemistry DPhil Student
I am interested in how post-transcriptional mechanisms govern neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation during brain development. Particularly, I will focus on the cis and trans-acting factors acting through highly extended 3'UTR in transcript regulations.
DTC iCase DPhil Student
I am DPhil student in the Davis lab, at the Department of Biochemistry of the University of Oxford. I am developing machine learning software that automatically generates scientific hypotheses based on correlations between existing data and genome-wide bioinformatics data.
Biochemistry DPhil Student
I am working on the involvement of glia in synapse development at the neuromuscular junction. I also collaborate with engineers in Micron and in the Department of Engineering to help with microscopy technology development from the point of view of a biologist.
DTC iCase DPhil Student
My project involves the application of adaptive optics to spinning-disc confocal microscopy systems for the study of Drosophila brains and other tissues. This is in collaboration with my industrial partner Aurox and I am also jointly based in Martin Booth's lab in the engineering department.
Marie Curie Postdoctoral Researcher
I joined the lab in 2021 as a DPhil student. I am interested in how viral infection, particularly with Zika and Sindbis virus, affects neuroplasticity in the Drosophila neuromuscular junction
Biochemistry/Scripps DPhil Student
I am interested in studying the complex regulation of RNA transport inside the long and thin nerves or axons of Drosophila, using genetics, biochemistry, and advanced microscopy and electron microscopy approaches.
Long term lab visitor and advisor, Fellow of the Royal Society and EMBO member.
DPhil Student
I am interested in investigating how genes associated with neurodegenerative diseases, namely Alzheimer's disease and ALS are locally translated at the periphery in glia and how they effect synaptic plasticity and larval behaviour.
