Personal profile
Biography
Julie is interested in the basic cellular and molecular singalling mechanisms involved in neurons as well as other cells. She is particularly interested in processes that trigger neurodegeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)/motor neuron disease (MND), and related condition frontotemporal dementia (FTD). This includes the role of cellular trafficking and the DNA damage response, as well as the protein disulphide isomerase family of chaperones.
