Biography
Neve graduated with First Class Honours in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Edinburgh and now works as a Research Assistant within the Department of Diabetes, a role funded by the Steve Morgan Foundation. Her work is focused on the in-vitro analysis of stem cell derived islets, testing both viability and function as part of a validation study.
Research
Islet Biology Research Group
Our group studies the fundamental science of islets of Langerhans, from the molecular biology of beta-cells to their effects on whole body physiology. We research the mechanisms of islet dysfunction during type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes, identify novel therapeutic targets, and work to improve islet transplantation therapy for type 1 diabetes.
