Victoria Cushing
PhD Student:
Structural Biology of DNA Repair Complexes
Victoria Cushing earned her Master's degree in biochemistry from the University of Oxford. She is investigating the structure and function of CAK and is currently pursuing high-resolution structures of inhibitor-bound complexes.
Lucy Dan
PhD Student:
Structural Biology of DNA Repair Complexes
Lucy Dan earned her Master's degree in biological sciences from Durham University. She is a ICR/Imperial Convergence Science Centre student and will investigate novel ways to target the activities of cyclin-dependent kinases for cancer therapy. Her interdisciplinary project is hosted jointly hosted in our lab and the laboratories of Dr. Anna Barnard and Dr. Alexis Barr.
Amy McGeoch
PhD Student:
Structural Biology of DNA Repair Complexes
Amy McGeoch earned her Bachelor's degree in biochemistry from the University of Leeds. She plans to investigate the involvement of cyclin-dependent kinase complexes in non-canonical pathways such as splicing.

Dr Reyhan Muhammad
Shaf Azad
PhD Student:
Structural Biology of Cell Signalling
I graduated from the University of Southampton, with an integrated Master’s in Biochemistry (MSc). For my bachelor’s project, I investigated the effects of reactive oxygen species and vitamin C on S100A9 aggregation in Alzheimer’s disease. For my Master’s project, I investigated the functional importance of Snap29 for mitosis in Drosophila. For my PhD, I study the molecular mechanisms of telomere maintenance.
