For the last two years I have been studying Biochemistry at the University of Bath and as part of our course we are strongly encouraged to spend our 3rd year on placement.

Spring 2018 Conference | Cells, energy control and Parkinson’s: the role of PINK1 and Parkin
Dr Miratul Muqit
My research is directed at defining key pathways in cells that are linked to the development of Parkinson’s and harnessing this knowledge to generate new ideas to prevent and treat the condition. Major advances in genetics have provided clues as to the key molecules that control such pathways however there remain fundamental gaps in our understanding of how these genes function in cells. In my laboratory we have been focused on the PINK1 and Parkin genes that represent the commonest genetic cause of Parkinson’s in patients under the age of 45.
