Dr. Paula Meleady

Associate Director

National Institute for Cellular Biotechnology

I am interested in the proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis of recombinant mammalian cells to improve biopharmaceuticals. This involves  genetically engineering cells to produce recombinant protein products more efficiently. I also perform research into the proteomic analysis of membrane proteins from cancers to identify cell surface targets that may be amenable to therapeutic intervention.
