Research Interests
I am primarily interested in the regulatory mechanisms that underpin and coordinate various aspects of cellular signalling, such as the modulation of enzymes by co-factors, small molecule ligands and post translational modifications (phosphorylation, sulfation, cysteine oxidation). In particular, my research focuses on the molecular analysis of kinases, pseudokinases and sulfotransferases as potential targets for therapeutic intervention in human disease.
