Erin recently completed her PhD at UWA. She has transdisciplinary expertise in physiology, imaging, mathematics and statistics, and data science.

Building upon this expertise, her ultimate goal is to develop a research program and novel methods that systematically model (i.e., mathematically and computationally) the complexity of biological processes across multiple systems, to enhance scientific understanding of health and disease and enable clinical translation via targeted interventions.

Her PhD research investigated the consequences of dysferlin deficiency in skeletal muscles, to better understand the molecular basis for the disease progression in patients with dysferlinopathy. Extending upon her PhD work she is now engaged in a large transdisciplinary research program investigating several biological systems/components involved in muscular dystrophies.
