Our Advisors

This page is for those who signed away their lives towards taking care of us, ensuring we didn't destroy the lab and giving us advice whenever we needed it (a lot). Our thanks!

Dr. Richard Bowater - A senior lecturer at the University of East Anglia in the School of Biological Sciences. Richard specialises in Biochemistry, and is currently leading a research team at the UEA. This work studies the macromolecular interactions of DNA repair mechanisms in bacteria, in particular focusing on DNA ligases.

Dr. Paul Ó Maille - A project leader at the John Innes Centre and the Institute of Food research (both located on the Norwich research Park). Paul specialises in plant Biochemistry, and his current research team is studying the secondary metabolites produced in plants and how these have evolved over time. In particular, Paul focuses on Turpenes, a group of phytochemicals with a wide range of potential applications.

Richard Kelwick - A research student at the University of East Anglia. Richard specialises in Biomedical Sciences and Molecular medicine. Richard's PhD is concerned with breast cancer research, titled: Degradomic Analysis of ADAMTS-15 Targets in Breast cancer
