I have over 10 years’ experience in women’s health-related research, having published several primary research papers on topics including preterm birth, gonadal development, and ovarian cell fate maintenance.
In 2016, I obtained a PhD from Imperial College London. In my PhD work, I investigated gene regulatory networks associated with both premature and on-time activation of uterine contractions during labor, and showed that we could delay inflammation-induced preterm labor by blocking the activation of the JNK pathway.
In December 2016, I move to the Francis Crick Institute to work as Postdoctoral Fellow in Robin Lovell-Badge's Lab investigating ovary development and function.
My research interest is understanding the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms controlling the growth of follicles, the egg-bearing structures, within the mammalian ovary, in health and disease.
