Dr A'edah Abu Bakar    Research Fellow

	Biography

Early career researcher currently working in a project funded by CRC-CARE.

Aedah completed her PhD at the University of Queensland in August 2005. She is now a postdoctoral fellow on the CRC-CARE project: “A New Approach for the Assessment of Biological Effects Induced by Oxidative Stress”. A’edah’s main research interests focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms of xenobiotic metabolism. In particular, she is interested in understanding the role of cytochrome P450 enzymes in cytoprotection against oxidative stress exerted by environmental pollutants.
