Cait is a first-year PhD student with a biological background ranging from genetic therapies to experimental neuroscience, now undertaking a project in analytical chemistry with SEISMIC. Her current project involves applying single-cell mass spectrometry techniques to the analysis of radiopharmaceutical treatment for prostate cancer. By gaining a better understanding of radiopharmaceutical action on a cellular level, we hope to overcome barriers to efficacy such as poor uptake and radioresistance.

Outside the lab, Cait enjoys crocheting clothes, listening to Kylie Minogue and trips to the cinema to see the latest horror movie. Following her PhD, she hopes to travel around her home country of Wales and gain a nail technician qualification.
