Congratulations to Lizzie Thomas, who has been awarded her Translational Research PhD! Lizzie's thesis topic is "Cognition across the schizotypy-schizophrenia continuum and the role of the glutamatergic system". Lizzie was investigating the influence of genes in the glutamatergic pathway on cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. Her supervisors were Dr Caroline Gurvich (Monash Alfred Psychiatry research centre), Professor Susan Rossell (Swinburne University) and Dr Kiymet Bozaoglu (Murdoch Children's Research Institute).
Lizzie is now MAPrc's Women's Mental Health Team Manager. She also recently won a Family Care Award to attend the Australasian Cognitive Neuroscience Conference in Launceston, Tasmania in November. Well done Lizzie on all fronts!
