Johanna Fish 2022-2023 Broadening Horizons Cohort
Johanna completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Southampton, with a 6-month placement at the University of Auckland, New Zealand in her 4th year. She joined the SoCoBio DTP programme for her PhD, where she is in her 2nd year at Southampton, where she aims to improve the ADME(T) properties of E3 ligase-targeting warheads for application in PROTACs. She is part of her university’s central ED&I committee, as well as the School of Biological Sciences, and is a welfare officer for postgraduate students in the same department. She studies part-time because of her caring duties and her late autism diagnosis makes it challenging for her to study in ‘normal’ time. She spends a lot of time campaigning for better opportunities and adjustments for marginalised backgrounds and is so thrilled to be here today!
