Vanessa Caig (Research Officer)

I have been working with DArT since May 2003 and am primarily focused on DArT for wheat. I am also responsible for ensuring smooth lab operations, purchasing lab supplies and for general lab organisation. During my time with DArT I have helped run a teaching workshop for breeders in September 2003 and have shown many visitors and new staff members the intricacies of the DArT technology.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Physiology and Pharmacology from the University of Queensland, and am just starting a Graduate Certificate in Health Science through the University of Newcastle to further my interest in human diseases and genetics. Before moving to DArT P/L, I worked with the drug discovery company Phenomix, in the area of animal physiology and genetics, focusing on mutant phenotyping.
