Specialist therapeutic areas: Cardiovascular, Metabolic Diseases, Inflammation and Drug Safety.  Catharine joined Wyeth and TMRC in Oct 2006 from the University of Cambridge, UK. Catharine’s training and research have developed core competencies in molecular biology, genetics and physiology. Catharine’s research prior to TMRC focussed on the use of animal models to further understanding and treatment of human disease. Catharine’s in vivo gene therapy studies on cystic fibrosis knock-out mice were critical in allowing a phase I clinical trial to proceed and Catharine also developed in vivo and ex vivo models to test gene therapy vectors. Her studies on models of cardiac arrhythmia have provided novel data on the mechanisms of arrhythmia and the action of anti-arrhythmic drugs. As a translational scientist for Wyeth and TMRC Catharine has spearheaded the initiation of research proposals in key areas of translational medicine need such as: biomarkers of ‘vulnerable plaque’; cardiovascular and liver safety biomarkers; target validation for anti-arrhythmic drugs.
