Biography

Pam is a molecular biologist with a background in cancer and Diabetes research. She completed her PhD at the Beatson Institute for Cancer Research in Glasgow, investigating the role for lipids in the development of colorectal cancer.

Pam continued to work in the field of signal transduction research, completing two post-doctoral positions in the University of Strathclyde then at the University of Virginia before taking up a position back in the University of Glasgow, where she was awarded a Wellcome Trust Career development Fellowship. She built up a team of researchers investigating the role of signalling pathways that control transcription by RNA polymerase III, and was awarded several research grants during this time. 

From her scientific research career, Pam has published widely and presented at many national and international meetings, including invited talks.

Pam switched to concentrate on her teaching career within the University and is now a Senior Lecturer, with a wide remit of responsibilities and roles in the School of Life Sciences and the University. She sits on the Biochemical Society Education Committee and through this has been involved in organising several national conferences and workshops.

Research interests

Pam is active in pedagogical research, which has led to several successful collaborations with colleagues throughout the UK. This has resulted in presentations at several national and international conferences including Higher Education Academy conferences, the Biochemical Society/FEBS conference and Society for Experimental Biology.

Pam has established a record of outputs relating to her pedagogic research including journal articles, talks and poster presentations at conferences. Her learning and teaching interest areas include e-learning, feedback and assessment, digital technology and bioscience education.
