Project summary
Helen is a senior lecturer at Newcastle University, studying the role of TGFbeta/BMP signalling in cardiovascular development and disease. She began her research career in DNA repair, but took an extended career break of about ten years to focus time on her three children when they were young. Starting her research career again after such a long break – and in a completely different subject area – was only possible thanks to her Career Re-entry Fellowship.
