I am a Masters student in the Zenker Group at the Australian Institute of Regenerative Medicine, Monash University. My research investigates how translational control regulates pluripotency during early embryonic development. I focus on differences in protein synthesis between the inner cell mass and differentiated cells, and how these influence cell fate decisions. Through my work, I use a range of molecular and cell biology techniques to investigate global and gene-specific translation. I am particularly interested in stem cell biology and its application in regenerative medicine.
