Titaya joined the Neuroinflammation Lab in 2020 as an Honours student, investigating energy metabolism in Huntington’s disease. After graduating from Honours, she continued her time in the lab as a Research Assistant and began her PhD journey in 2022. Her PhD project focusses on elucidating the role of neutrophils in MND.
