Lab members

  • Paul Martin
    (Principal Investigator) Paul is interested in anything woundy or linked to inflammation in any model from mouse and man to fish and flies.
  • Francesca Robertson
    (Post doc) Francesca is using Drosophila to investigate how innate immune cells respond to wound cues.
  • Mark Naven
    (Post doc) Mark is trying to figure out how the circadian clock might impact on tissue repair via inflammatory cell control of fibroblast matrix deposition.
  • Oscar Peña Cabello
    (Post doc) Oscar will be using zebrafish wound models to validate potential "scarring" genes that arise from population health studies in Nic Timpson's lab.
  • Terrence Trinca
    (Post doc) Terrence will be using Drosophila to screen and characterise novel extravasation genes. He works jointly with the Martin and Weavers labs.
  • Esther Prada-Sanchez
    Esther is a specialist technician who works half time in our lab on all things fishy.
