Megan is joining the Bolam Group as the Girdlers' New Zealand HRC Postdoctoral Fellow. Her research will focus on the analysis of populations of striatal interneurons, initially by electron microscopy.
Megan completed her PhD in Pharmacology at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, under the supervision of Associate Professor Michelle Glass. Her research has centred around the endocannabinoid system in Huntington's disease, in both transgenic mice and post-mortem human tissue, to evaluate the putative pathological nature of changes occurring in this neuromodulatory system.
