Nadia is from this fantastic country called France where she did her undergrads and masters. She majored in molecular biology and biochemistry in her undergrads and studied parasitology during her MSc. She received her PhD from the University of Glasgow, Scotland where she studied the role of proline dehydrogenase in the energy metabolism of Trypanosoma brucei. Currently she is working as a post doctoral research fellow. Her work focuses on ceramide kinase and the role of this enzyme in inflammatory disease states.

In her spare time (what spare time, I am always working in lab!), Nadia volunteers in the ER and her hobbies include playing tennis (or trying to), going to the cinema (French Films, of course), and eating good food (French, of course, and French Fries are not French!)
