Dr Amanda Hornsby is an Honorary Research Fellow at Swansea University's School of Medicine, affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Science. Her research focuses on neuroendocrinology and molecular neurobiology, specifically investigating the role of ghrelin in adult hippocampal neurogenesis, memory function, and developmental outcomes. Collaborating with Cardiff University and Swansea University colleagues, her work explores how feeding patterns impact neurological and educational development. She holds expertise in immunohistochemical techniques, molecular biology (ELISA/Western Blotting), and cell culture.
Key career highlights include the 2020 Endocrinology Society Summer Scholarship Grant. Her publications span cellular mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Parkinson’s dementia) and translational studies linking metabolic pathways to skeletal growth. She actively contributes to interdisciplinary research networks connecting endocrinology, nutrition, and developmental biology.
