![]() Aimee J. Horsfall obtained her M.Phil. (2016), and recently finalised her Ph.D. (2021) at the University of Adelaide under the supervision of Prof. Andrew D. Abell and Dr John B. Bruning. Her thesis describes techniques to study protein interactions using peptides and peptidomimetics. Aimee is now a Research Fellow at the University of Auckland with Dist. Dame Margaret Brimble and Assoc. Prof. Paul Harris. |
