'Fluorescent ligands for G protein-coupled receptors - shedding new light on receptor-drug interactions' AND 'The role of mitochondrial biogenesis in insulin resistence' Other events...
Dr Stoddart gained her PhD in 2007 from the University of Glasgow, UK under the supervision of Professor Graeme Milligan. In 2009, she took up a postdoctoral position with Professor Stephen Hill and Dr Stephen Briddon within the Cell Signalling Research Group at the University of Nottingham, UK. The main focus of her research has been the development of fluorescent small molecule agonists and antagonists for GPCRs, namely for the adenosine receptors and histamine H1 receptor, and their use to probe novel aspects of GPCR pharmacology. Leigh was named the BPS (British Pharmacological Society) and ASCEPT (Australasian Society of Clinical and Experimental Pharmacologists and Toxicologists) Outstanding Young Investigator for 2014 and is visiting Associate Professor Kevin Pfleger's laboratory as part of this award.

Nicola Ferreira is a Perkins Vacation Scholarship Student in Professor Aleksandra Filipovska's laboratory.
