Lucy Scullard is a postgraduate research student in the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Southampton working in the area of synaptic proteostasis for neuronal stability.
2020-present: PhD studentship. University of Southampton, UK.
2016-2020: MSci Biochemistry and Biological Chemistry. University of Nottingham, UK.
Through my background in biochemistry I developed an interest in neurological processes and neurodegenerative conditions. My work is in the area of synaptic proteostasis for neuronal stability. Particularly working on the Cysteine string protein paradigm within neuronal stability in health and disease.
Research project: The CSP Alpha paradigm: synaptic proteostasis for neuronal stability in health and disease.
