Emma Watson completed her PhD supervision under Professor Richard Payne at the University of Sydney, focusing on developing synthetic methods for accessing post-translationally modified proteins. She attained her postdoctoral appointment with Professor Nicolas Winssinger at the University of Geneva as an EMBO postdoctoral fellow, where she worked on logic gated biosupramolecular systems in oncology. In 2022, she returned to Australia to begin an independent career at the University of Adelaide before becoming a Senior Lecturer and ARC DECRA Fellow at Monash University in 2025. Her research centers on developing responsive therapeutic systems based on biomolecules, leveraging Boolean logic to enhance safety and precision in treatment. Watson's research interests include developing new methodologies for protein synthesis with late-stage modification, exploring post-translational modifications for the regulation of function in therapeutically relevant proteins, and utilizing nucleic acid mimics (PNA - Peptide Nucleic Acids) as components of molecular circuits to enable targeted drug delivery.
