Biography

Nichola Cooper's research focuses on understanding the molecular basis of autoimmune conditions in haematology, particularly immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition that leads to the premature destruction of platelets. Her work combines genetic and genomic analysis of individuals with extreme phenotypes and employs CRISPR-based in vitro functional validation, alongside parallel 'omic' approaches. These methodologies are aimed at defining novel pathways that regulate autoimmunity. Her contributions to the field include significant publications, such as the study by Afzaku B et al., published in Nature Immunology. Dr. Cooper has graduated with multiple degrees from esteemed institutions and has undergone extensive postgraduate training, further solidifying her expertise in haematology and immunology.
