Studying Biochemical & Molecular Health & Medical Science Affiliated UWA Appointed 2015
I am an avid learner who loves researching, picking up new skills and gaining new knowledge as well as passing on my skills and knowledge.
Marisa is developing an analytical biochemistry method to better understand how protein thiol oxidation contributes to worsening the disease progression of muscular dystrophy.
In 2017, Marisa set up a fluorescent-based assay to identify which thiol proteins become oxidised in dystrophic muscles. Marisa presented her work at the 2017 Lorne Proteomics Symposium in Victoria and the 7th Asia Oceania Mass Spectrometry Conference in Singapore.
