Absolutely thrilled to receive an @AIPS_science 2025 SA Young Tall Poppy Award! Wouldn't be possible without a great team, dedicated patient advocates, & funding bodies that allowed me to connect with scientific/non-science groups to communicate research.

Great to see this work led by Janni Manning @CCB_Research now out. The paper reports an unexpected finding that the deficiency of NEDD4-2 ubiquitin ligase in the kidney reduces blood glucose levels and corrects metabolic parameters in a diabetic model. https://t.co/5P5Xgzqjah
