Dr. Jodi Alexander is a Lecturer in Zoology at Bangor University's School of Environmental and Natural Sciences. Her research focuses on crustacean neuroendocrinology, particularly the hormonal and neuropeptide signaling mechanisms regulating molting (ecdysis) and stress responses in species like the green shore crab (Carcinus maenas). She also contributes to cancer biology research, investigating nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems targeting cancer stem cells in retinoblastoma. Her work integrates molecular biology, transcriptomics, and physiological studies to uncover fundamental biological processes in marine organisms and translational applications in human health.
Recent publications highlight her expertise in analyzing neuropeptide systems (e.g., Allatostatin-C, Pigment Dispersing Factors, Corazonin) and their roles in crustacean physiology. Collaborative projects with medical researchers demonstrate her interdisciplinary approach to addressing challenges in oncology and drug delivery.
No scientific awards or grants are explicitly mentioned in the provided text. While no advisees are listed, her research contributions suggest potential mentorship roles in postgraduate studies.
