Clare Taylor Clare was a part II student in the group.
Daisy Rogers-Simmonds Daisy joins us through the Institute of Chemical Biology CDT programme. She works between the Wallace Group and the Membrane Biophysics Group at Imperial College in collaboration with Oxford Nanopore Technologies. Her research interests lie in the development and study of droplet interface bilayers using block copolymers, and the subsequent incorporation of nanopores into these systems. Prior to joining the group, Daisy obtained a BSc (Hons) in Chemistry from Imperial College.
Daisy has a keen interest in and passion for public outreach and science communication, and recently began voluntary work as a STEM Ambassador alongside her studies.
Eve Weatherill Eve is a former PhD student, now senior PDRA. Her work has encompassed membrane protein folding, ion channel gating, and new methods for nanopore stochastic sensing.
⊕ Guanzong Zhai Supported by the King's-China Scholarship Council PhD Scholarship programme (K-CSC), Guanzhong Zhai joins the Wallace group working on on new methods for artificial cell fabrication.
Hajra Basit Hajra joined the Wallace group in Oxford on a Marie Curie IE fellowship in July 2014. In her time in the Wallace group, she studied the twin-arginine transport system, both, in vivo and in vitro. She then obtained a John Fell fund in collaboration with Simon Newstead, to extend this work to studying other transporter proteins of the MFS type in artificial bilayers, using single-molecule FRET.
Job Titles:

Mark Martinez Mark was a part II student in the group.
Matthew Baker Matt was a PDRA in the lab. He brought a physics background which we supplemented with early super-resolved imaging in live bacteria. We also had fun supporting Matt's strong passion for science communication, now sustained in an independent position as Scientia Research Fellow in the School of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences at the University of New South Wales. In 2018 Matt won the UNSW Dean's Award for Excellence in Science Communication.
Matthew Blosser Matthew was a fantastic NIH research fellow working on nanoscopic lipid phase separation.
Matthew Cheetham Matthew Cheetham was a postdoc in the lab working on topology and topography in membrane diffusion.
Matthew Horrocks Matthew was a part II student in the group who went on to do a PhD with David Klenerman in Cambridge. Matthew has now founded his own group at the University of Edinburgh.
