Biography and Research Interest
I started working with zebrafish during my PhD in London in Simon Hughes group, looking at muscle development and the origins of the vertebrate. After a brief postdoc working on chick bone I found my way back to working with fish on an EMBO fellowship at the Hubrecht Institute in the Netherlands identifying mutants that affected skeletal development. I started my own group at the University of Bristol with funding from Arthritis Research UK back in December 2010 studying cartilage and bone homeostasis in development and disease and since then I've been slowly convincing anyone and everyone in Bristol who will listen that zebrafish are awesome and they should work on them.
