Research Report 2025: Investigating the Role of Alpha-Synuclein Charge in Synaptic Vesicle Fusion and Neurotransmitter Release Using Mass Spectrometry
Studying how the neuronal protein α-synuclein interacts with signalling lipids to regulate vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release. Using advanced mass spectrometry, this study reveals molecular insights into mechanisms underlying Parkinson’s disease and related synucleinopathies.

Hello! I am a 2025 Laidlaw Scholar from the University of Leeds, currently studying Biomedical Science. My research explores the role of alpha-synuclein charge in synaptic vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release using mass spectrometry approch.
As a naturally curious and interdisciplinary thinker, I’m passionate about learning from diverse perspectives and connecting with others who are driven by purpose, innovation, and leadership—whatever their field may be.
I’d love to connect, collaborate, and grow together as part of this dynamic global network.
