Graduate student (2008-2012)

Montse did her undergraduate and masters degrees at the University of Southampton (2004-2008). During her masters she worked for 6 months with ATDBio on the subject of chemical synthesis and on studies on the effect of modified monomers on the thermal stability of triplex-forming oligonucleotides. Montse started her PhD in the Brown group in October 2008. She worked on various projects: a triplex approach to gene inhibition via the synthesis of modified monomers for the stabilisation of DNA triplexes; the delivery of oligonucleotides into cells; and methods for copper-free click chemistry.
