Alexandra Preston is a Postdoctoral Scientist and Research Fellow at the Nuffield Department of Medicine, University of Oxford, affiliated with the Keble College. She works within the Drakesmith Group, focusing on the intersection of iron metabolism and immune responses.
- Education: 1st Class BSc(Hons) in Biology, University of Bath (2017); Year abroad at Garvan Institute of Medical Research (Sydney)
- Research Focus: Erythropoiesis regulation, iron's impact on vaccination efficacy, and immunometabolic interactions
- Key Techniques: Genomic, cellular, and metabolic approaches to studying blood cell production
Her research explores how environmental factors and metabolic pathways influence red blood cell generation and immune function, particularly through iron homeostasis mechanisms.
Recent publications highlight her work on iron regulation in innate immunity (2021), hepcidin-mediated immune suppression (2021), and rare metabolic disorders affecting cellular signaling (2016).
