Izzy Jayasinghe
Izzy is an Associate Professor at Single Molecule Science, UNSW, and a UKRI Future Leader Fellow. She was awarded her PhD in 2011 at the University of Auckland for the early work applying localisation microscopy (STORM) to visualise the cardiac ryanodine receptor. Izzy established her independent research group in the University of Leeds in 2015 where developed adaptations of optical imaging methods such as DNA-PAINT and Expansion Microscopy (ExM) to study pathological nanoscale remodelling in the failing heart. Her current research focuses on developing more accessible, faster and higher resolution imaging methods for imaging optically-thick (and biologically more complex) samples. Izzy is a Fellow of the Royal Microscopical Society and advocates for Open Science and Equality and Inclusion in the UK and Australia’s STEM sector.
