Chris Sibley is a Sir Henry Dale Fellow in the Institute of Quantitative Biology, Biochemistry & Biotechnology at the University of Edinburgh. His research group focuses on understanding RNA-regulated central nervous system health and disease using a range of wet and dry-lab techniques. This includes the integration of single-nuclei RNA sequencing to analyze transcriptome-wide changes in RNA metabolism using clinically relevant post-mortem brain tissue and human induced pluripotent stem cell models. He has conducted extensive research on neural cell dysfunction and aims to identify new disease mechanisms and therapeutic targets related to neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases, including ALS and autism. Sibley also plays an active role in undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, overseeing various courses related to gene expression and RNA processing. His involvement in international workshops emphasizes his commitment to advancing the field of neuroscience through both research and education.
