She then relocated to the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Cambridge UK and held a joint appointment at the Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Cambridge UK. After some time at the University of Edinburgh, she returned to The Florey Institute as an independent group leader. Her research interests lie in understanding the role of synaptic genes in cognition and disease.
