Taking you behind the scenes of MND research
A molecule produced by a gene that carries out biological functions.
Ribonucleic acid is the cell’s copy of our genetic material known as DNA. The primary role of RNA is to convert the information stored in DNA into proteins which carry out cellular functions.
The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is an immunological assay commonly used to measure antibodies, antigens, proteins and glycoproteins in biological samples.
I work as a Research Officer within the MND Association to co-ordinate the International Symposium. I graduated with a Masters Degree in Neuroscience from Cardiff University in 2023. I have previously held several event organising positions and I have supported the awareness of Fragile X syndrome within the UK. My role within the association entails the organisation of the symposium and communicating the latest updates of MND research across our social media platforms.
