Dr. Russell Betney

Field: Yeast Molecular Biology, Translational control of gene expression.

I did my degree in Biochemistry with Immunology (1999) followed by a PhD in Biochemistry (2003) at the University of Aberdeen. I spent 18 months doing a post-doc in Berlin before returning to Aberdeen to take up a post-doc position on a systems biology project.

Dr. George Coghill

Field: Model-based Systems and Qualitative Reasoning, Systems Biology

Degree in Engineering Science from Aberdeen University followed by 8 year as a Medical Physicist. Decided that Academe looked more interesting so spent 7 years as a Post-doc at Heriot Watt (during which time I actually did a PhD in Intelligent Systems/Electronic Engineering). Became a lecturer at Aberystwyth University in 1997, and returned to Aberdeen in 2002.

Dr. Mette Jacobsen

Field: Fungal molecular biology, responses to stress

After finishing my M.Sc in Biology (1999) at University of Copenhagen, Denmark, I did an Industrial PhD and graduated from University of Aberdeen (2005). Since then, I have worked as a post doc on 2 different projects related to pathogenic fungi and their population structure and resistance to antifungal drugs. Currently, I work as part of a large systems biology team addressing questions of stress responses of fungi.

Dr. Despoina Kaloriti

Field: Molecular Biology

After gaining a PhD in Molecular and Cell Biology at Durham University, UK (2004), I got post doc positions at University of Lisbon, Portugal and at Illinois State University, USA studying the Microtubule and Actin Cytoskeleton of Plants. Since 2008 I have joined a Systems Biology project at University of Aberdeen and study the responses of pathogenic yeast Candida to stress conditions.

Dr. Wei Pang

Field: Systems Biology

I did my B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Computer Science from 1997 to 2004 in Jilin University, China. In 2005 I moved to Aberdeen and spent three years and a half for a Ph.D. degree in Computing Science. Now I am a post-doc and involved in a five-year systems biology project. My research interest is qualitative approaches to systems biology.

Dr. Mamen Romano

Field: Nonlinear dynamics and time series analysis, modelling of biological systems

I studied Physics in Spain and Germany; then I did my PhD at the University of Potsdam (Germany) in 2004, and stayed there for two more years doing a PostDoc. I moved to Aberdeen at the end of 2006 and became Lecturer in 2007.
