Cambridge, England, United Kingdom
I am a results-driven computational biologist focused on advancing molecular biology discovery through integrative, data-driven approaches. Currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, I specialise in RNA biology, epigenetics, and multi-omics analysis, combining computational and experimental expertise, including next-generation and long-read sequencing technologies. My experience spans roles at the University of Cambridge and the South Australian Genomics Centre within the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute, alongside international collaboration with the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics as a Freiburg Rising Star Fellow. I completed my PhD at the University of Adelaide, focusing on plant epigenetics and RNA biology. My work on RNA modifications has been recognised through multiple international awards and a TEDx talk. My interests include single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, long-read sequencing, and multi-omics integration across agriculture, developmental biology, and disease. I am particularly interested in leading interdisciplinary research that bridges plant and biomedical sciences, leveraging emerging technologies to generate new biological insights.
Postdoctoral Research Associate in Bioinformatics with Dr. Ana Tufegdžić Vidaković on the regulation of RNA Pol II transcription.
Trinity College Cambridge set up its Postdoctoral Society to offer a collegiate environment in which postdoctoral researchers from different disciplines can meet and conduct intellectual, cultural and social activities. Membership of the Society is by nomination by a Trinity Fellow, who can act as a familiar face for those new to Cambridge or the College. The Society may also advertise for new members from time to time.
Computational Biology Research Associate at Sir David Baulcombe's lab. My research focus is using NGS and long read sequencing data to investigate the role of non-coding RNAs in host-pathogen interaction and disease resistance in tomatoes.
Visiting Research Associate of School of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology at The University of Adelaide. Honorary title awarded as continued affiliation with the University.
EnterpriseTECH is a programme with lectures, workshops, supervisions and a team project focusing on the potential commercialisation of an early-stage or emerging technology. It teaches subject-relevant entrepreneurial skills to students and researchers from all backgrounds across the University of Cambridge and other institutions. Sabrina is supported by the competitive UKRI BBSRC Impact Acceleration Scholarship to pursue EnterpriseTech.
