Erin is a Lecturer in the School of Human Sciences, with transdisciplinary expertise in physiology, biomechanics, mathematics, data analytics, and advanced 3D imaging. She received her PhD in skeletal muscle physiology and biomechanics from UWA and then conducted postdoctoral research in the immunology of muscular dystrophy at Curtin University.

Building upon this expertise, her research aims to gain a comprehensive mechanistic understanding of human physiology, with a specific focus on skeletal muscles and their complex multiscale interactions with other systems. Erin prioritises clinical translation, aiming to improve health across the lifespan via targeted interventions rooted in robust mechanistic understanding.

To date, a primary focus has been the application of her transdisciplinary approach to understanding the mechanistic basis for the disease progression in patients with dysferlinopathy. Extending upon this, she is now engaged in a large transdisciplinary research program investigating several biological systems involved in neuromuscular disorders.
