Tereza is an EPSRC Postdoctoral Pathway Scheme Fellow developing new NMR pulse sequences for multinuclear NMR metabolomics to improve the diagnosis and prognosis of Alzheimer’s disease. Building upon her DPhil research, she aims to expand the analytical capabilities of NMR spectroscopy for studying complex biological samples and to enable simultaneous detection of multiple nuclei relevant to metabolism. By combining analytical chemistry, biochemistry, and data science, her work seeks to enhance the sensitivity and translational potential of NMR-based biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis.
She completed her DPhil in Chemistry under the supervision of Prof James McCullagh and Dr Fay Probert, focusing on NMR and mass spectrometry-based metabolomics in Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis.
Outside the lab, Tereza enjoys running, early morning gym sessions, and listening to classical music and opera.

Nick is a post-doc interested in understanding what rules govern how biomolecules are separated into membraneless organelles, particularly in human neurons in the context of neurological disease. Prior to joining the lab, Nick trained extensively as a neurobiologist at King’s College London (PhD) and Oxford (post-doc, Nuffield Department of Clinical Neuroscience) using human stem cell-derived neuronal models of autism, schizophrenia, and Parkinson’s disease to establish new molecular mechanisms of disease origins. Outside the lab, Nick enjoys playing the bass guitar, watching cult films, and the occasional pub quiz.
