Marie-Christine Laurent – Project Manager, mcl51@cam.ac.uk
Marie-Christine started working as Project Manager with the Murphy and Krieg groups in 2015 to work on a Translational Cardiovascular project as well as continuing work on Imaging studies in the University Department of Radiology. Prior to this, Marie-Christine worked for 10 years in Industry, in pre-clinical Study Management, specialising in Toxicology studies. She is currently working between the Department of EMIT and the MRC-MBU, with the Krieg and Murphy groups and acting as first point of contact for Research support, grant financial management and administrative tasks.

Ana Vujic - Career Development Research Fellow, av335@cam.ac.uk
Ana studies heart function and development of heart disease, such as heart failure on a molecular and cellular level. As someone who exercises daily, she has long been fascinated by the effects of exercise and diet on heart health and development of cardiometabolic diseases. She is funded by Cambridge BHF Centre of Research Excellence. Ana’s previous research at Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology Department, Harvard University focused on heart disease and heart regeneration.

Hiran Prag -Postdoctoral Research Fellow, hap38@mrc-mbu.cam.ac.uk
Hiran’s primary interests lie in understanding the pathophysiology of cardiac ischaemia/reperfusion injury, with a particular focus on the role mitochondria play. His recent current work focusses on the development of novel therapies targeting succinate metabolism in I/R injury to improve their efficacy and prospect for translation to the clinic.

Annabel Sorby-Adams - Postdoctoral Research Fellow (Visiting Researcher), ajs335@cam.ac.uk
Annabel joined the Krieg lab in 2021 following completion of her PhD at the University of Adelaide, Australia.
Her primary research area is stroke, and she has a keen interest in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying reperfusion injury and the development of secondary injury such as blood brain barrier dysfunction and cerebral oedema. She is passionate about applying neuroimaging techniques to better enhance clinical translation and the development of novel therapeutics.
