Mischa Emery

MRC DTP PhD Student

I’ve joined the Wigby lab at the University of Liverpool as a MRC DiMeN DTP PhD candidate. My project centres on investigating the effects of diet and ageing in relation to prostate cancer, using Drosophila as a model system. With a background in biochemistry, entomology and cell biology my favourite projects to work on are those that are interdisciplinary, aim to solve medically important issues whilst increasing our understanding of how biological systems function. Outside of science I am a collector of hobbies, current favourites being bouldering, reading and sewing.
