Dr Sara De Ornellas

Post-doctoral researcher (2014-)

Sara completed her MSci degree at the University of Bristol, before moving to the University of York to carry out her PhD under the supervision of Prof. Ian Fairlamb and Dr Christoph Baumann, working on Pd-catalysed synthesis of novel fluorescent nucleosides. After a postdoctoral position at the University of Strathclyde, she moved to the Brown group in 2014 and is working on developing new probes for fluorescence in situ hybridisation. This is a collaboration with Professors Veronica Buckle and Jim Hughes at the Weatherall Institute for Molecular Medicine (WIMM).
