Senior Research Fellows latest

11 November 2010

One achievement we’re particularly proud of is our role in the long-term career development of outstanding researchers, several of whom have recently received Trust Senior Research Fellowships.

Dr Adele Marston was previously a Wellcome Trust Prize Student, a Travelling Fellow and a Research Career Development Fellow, and studies cell division at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Cell Biology in Edinburgh. Dr Heidi Johansen-Berg, who researches brain changes associated with learning and recovery from stroke at the University of Oxford, is also on her fourth award, as is Professor Nancy Papalopulu of the University of Manchester, who studies the development of neurons. Finally, Professors Sophie Scott and Greg Towers of University College London have received their third Trust awards to continue their research into the neurobiology of speech and molecular virology, respectively.
