Biography
- Ashley finished in her final year of a Bachelor of Commerce/Advanced Science degree at UNSW. Her Honours project was based on synthesising and using DNA origami tension probes to analyse cellular traction forces in hydrogels. She has now returned to our group as a PhD student! When not working, she binge-reads sci-fi/fantasy novels, plays fingerstyle guitar (albeit rather poorly), and obsesses over her three adorable cats.
