Biography

I did my honours research project with the Wicking Dementia Research and Education Centre in 2012. The project was a genetic sub-study of the Healthy Brain Project, supervised by Professor James Vickers and Dr Mathew Summers. Currently, I am working as a research assistant with the Wicking group in the laboratory as well as doing cognitive assessments for the Tasmanian Healthy Brain Project. I recently accepted an offer to do a PhD with the Wicking group.
