Geraldine’s PhD research focused on a new population of white blood cells called innate lymphoid cells and revealed an unexpected role for these cells in intestinal cancer and fibrotic scar tissue formation.
As a Fellow, she aimed to find a way to study the physical forces that determine egg and sperm development and can inspire bioengineered gonad designs.
She is now a Sir Henry Wellcome Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Cambridge.
Geraldine’s planned research could revolutionize fertility options by understanding the biophysics of sperm and egg development.
