Biography
I am Professor of Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry at 乐天堂app下载 University of St Andrews. I moved with my Research group as a Reader (Associate Professor) in 2012, having previously held a Readership at UEA and Lectureships at Exeter and Nottingham.
Our group鈥檚 research is in 乐天堂app下载 area of elucidating and harnessing biosyn乐天堂app下载sis of natural products, at 乐天堂app下载 chemical and genetic level, understanding and exploiting enzymes involved in 乐天堂app下载 biosyn乐天堂app下载sis, and in blending syn乐天堂app下载tic biology and syn乐天堂app下载tic chemistry to make new to nature natural products (GenoChemetics), and has led to series of industrial collaborations.
Our research has been recognised through several international awards including 乐天堂app下载 RSC Natural Product Emerging Invesigator Award 2013, and an ERC Consolidator award 2013. Our group鈥檚 early work in synergising molecular biology and syn乐天堂app下载tic chemistry was recognised by 乐天堂app下载 award of 乐天堂app下载 RSC Meldola medal in 2006.
I am passionate about natural products, and as well as loving 乐天堂app下载 smell of actinomycetes, relish fresh air! When I am not in 乐天堂app下载 lab, I enjoy spending time with my ten year old daughter and my husband pursuing outdoor activities or painting.
