Louise Bicknell
Dr Louise Bicknell is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Biochemistry, University of Otago.
She completed her PhD in human genetics at Otago, followed by a postdoctoral position studying the genetic basis of growth disorders at the MRC Institute of Genetics and Molecular Medicine, University of Edinburgh. Louise repatriated to the University of Otago with a Rutherford Discovery Fellowship in late 2015. In 2020 she was jointly awarded the Rowheath Trust Award and Carl Smith Medal, in recognition to outstanding research performance by Early Career Staff at the University of Otago. Her broad research theme is understanding how genetic variation present in our genomes makes people differ in their development and their lifetime health. She focuses on rare human disorders, where her lab uses cutting edge sequencing technology and molecular biology techniques to identify and understand novel causes of human disorders.
