Linda Mullins

Linda Mullins serves as a Research Fellow at the Centre for Cardiovascular Science, University of Edinburgh, based at the Queens Medical Research Institute (Edinburgh Bioquarter). Her work centers on transgenic model development for cardiovascular research, with contact via Linda.Mullins@ed.ac.uk or 0131 242 6720.

Her 25-year research program focuses on:

• Generating transgenic mouse/rat models using microinjection, ES cell techniques, and CRISPR-Cas9
• Targeting cardiovascular-relevant genes (renin, 11B-hydroxylase, HSD11B2)
• Characterizing renal function, blood pressure, and metabolic parameters
• Current expansion into zebrafish CRISPR-Cas9 models

Her expertise bridges molecular genetics and physiological phenotyping in hypertension research.
