معرفی
Dr. Tim Satchwell is a Senior Lecturer in Applied Biomedical Science at the Department of Applied Sciences, University of the West of England. He is a leading red blood cell biologist with over 35 publications focusing on erythropoiesis, hemolytic anemias, malaria invasion mechanisms, and membrane-cytoskeletal protein interactions. His work utilizes CRISPR gene editing and immortalized erythroblast cell lines to study erythroid biology in health and disease.
- Education: MBiochem (Oxon), PhD
Research Interests: Dr. Satchwell investigates in vitro red blood cell generation, mechanisms of membrane biogenesis disruption in anemias, phosphorylation in red blood cell deformability, reticulocyte maturation, host cell proteins in malaria invasion, and red blood cell interactions with other cell types. He has established two new blood group systems (Er 2022, MAL 2024) and collaborates with NHS Blood & Transplant and the University of Bristol.
Recent Publications: His work spans erythroid cell culture optimization, blood group genetics, malaria invasion mechanisms, and red blood cell membrane dynamics, appearing in journals like EMBO Molecular Medicine, Nature Communications, and Blood.
- Scientific Awards:
- Er blood group system discovery (2022)
- MAL blood group system discovery (2024)
- Honorary Research Fellow, University of Bristol
- Co-founder, Scarlet Therapeutics
Collaborations: Works with NHS Blood & Transplant and University of Bristol researchers, advancing stem cell-derived red blood cell therapeutics.
