Biography
Melissa is currently a postdoctoral research fellow in the Ryten lab at University College London. Her current project focuses on understanding the changes to cellular architecture in the context of Parkinson’s disease by using a combination of single cell and spatially resolved transcriptomic data.
Her scientific background is quite broad, having studied a BSc in interdisciplinary science and technology (Federal University of São Paulo) and subsequently specialising in neuroscience with an MSc (University College Cork). She returned to her interdisciplinary interests for her doctoral studies in the Dendrou lab (University of Oxford), where she used an integrative approach to profile the spatially resolved molecular landscape of the human central nervous system.
