Congrats to a wonderful researcher and an even greater mentor! I’ll always be grateful to you for giving me my start in science!

Cannot speak highly enough of this super talented, intelligent and kind-hearted human being. La trobe is a much richer place for your presence.

A huge shout out to all the incredible women that have guided and shaped my career and life in academia, especially Prof Louise Purton, Karla Helbig, Caroline Taylor, Lakshmi Wijeyewickrema and many many others! #IWD2024

Researchers have long known that diet had a role to play in treating Inherited Metabolic Disorders. The problem is that each one is unique — so rare, that medicine did not have the tools to develop new treatments. Enter the fruit fly. brnw.ch/21wHOB8 Johnson Lab
