Junetha Syed Jabarulla
BSc, MSc, PhD
Postdoctoral Researcher
Biography
Junetha graduated from Madurai Kamaraj University (India) in Microbial gene Technology. Following her Master’s she joined as a Project Associate in the Department of Biotechnology, Indian Institute of Technology Madras working on the Functional characterization of Ras association domain-containing proteins. In 2012, she started her PhD in Chemical Biology with Prof. Hiroshi Sugiyama, Kyoto University, Japan. Her PhD thesis focused on regulating the eukaryotic gene expression by programmable DNA-binding small molecules Pyrrole-imidazole polyamides. After completing her PhD, she joined University of Warwick, UK in 2016 as a Post-Doctoral Researcher working on the genetic code expansion in Zebrafish embryos. In 2018, Junetha joined as a Post-Doctoral researcher in the DNA Repair in Cancer Treatment group, Department of Oncology, University of Oxford where she was working on the acetylation dynamics of DNA repair proteins with respect to radiosensitisation. In 2021, Junetha joined as a Post-Doctoral Researcher/ Lab manager in the Chromosome integrity group.
