Yimon Aye
Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology and Tutorial Fellow, Pembroke College.
Yimon joins us from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. Yimon’s research is focused on understanding reactive small-molecule-driven cellular communication processes. Her work is of relevance to human health, and she and her team are working to develop novel therapeutic and technological interventions.
Yimon said: “Personally, coming (back) to Oxford marks a homecoming after 20 years – I am ready to take on new research directions, new challenges/risks/opportunities, and do everything I can to give back, which gives me an enormous sense of personal fulfilment beyond scientific and pedagogical aspirations.”
