Oligodendrocytes

Small cells that form a myelin sheath around motor neurons, which is an insulating layer that protects the neuron and helps to send signals to other cells effectively.

I work as a Senior Research Officer within the MND Association to communicate the latest updates in MND research across our platforms. Additionally, I manage the digital platforms and communications for the International Symposium on ALS/MND. I graduated with a master's degree in Neuroscience from Cardiff University in 2023. I have previously supported the awareness of Fragile X syndrome within the UK.
