Lindsay Cahill is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry and cross-appointed to Radiology and Pharmacy. She is a biophysical chemist and currently teaches Introductory Chemistry (Chem 1010) and Thermodynamics and Kinetics (Chem 2301).

Grace Mercer obtained her undergraduate chemistry degree from MUN. Her research uses a mouse model of preterm birth and involves studying novel therapies to protect the fetal brain. Grace is the group artist - her rendering of a mouse is award-winning.

Nikita Harvey is also a MUN alumni. Her research project involves the study of long-term outcomes following maternal exposure to nanoplastics. In her spare time, Nikita plays softball and is also a very talented artist.

Jenna Hanrahan is a MUN alumni. She is using MRI to study a mouse model of Huntington disease. She has also become an expert at ultrasound imaging of pregnant mice. She has an impressive record collection (she owns one that is older than Dr. Cahill!)

Drew Locke is a thoughtful third year in the biochemistry program. He has four(!) dogs and enjoys motorcycle riding (motorcycle club member #1). He also likes thermodynamics. 

Haley Adams is a terrific third year in the chemistry program. She knows our decrepit mice better than anyone. She is originally from Nova Scotia and enjoys reading and studying kinetics. 

Lauren Ringer is a tireless third year in the chemistry program. She loves photography, hiking and sunrises. She also has the MUN course calendar memorized.  

Sophie Kiefte is a tenacious third year who is very good at collecting NMR data. A fun fact about her is that her birthday is on International Women's Day!

Thomas ("Tommy") O'Brien is a treasured third year in biochemistry. He likes hockey and when he isn't walking one of Drew's dogs, I suspect he is motorcycle club member #3.

Darcie Stapleton is a first year medical learner at MUN. She is a superhero and is involved in almost every project in Dr. Cahill's lab. Much of her time is spent collecting human placentas.  

Katie Steeves is a first year medical learner at MUN. She completed her Honours project in our group and is our resident expert in NMR metabolite assignment. No one reads a 2D COSY like her. 

Mark Russell is a MUN alumni. He is our animal expert and is using ultrasound to study a mouse model of neurodegeneration. In his spare time, he is a true Newfoundlander and likes to fish.

Catherine Barrett is a talented third year in Kinesiology. She has been instrumental in implementing patient-oriented research in the group and she is becoming a whiz at spreadsheets. In her spare time, she coaches swimming!

Caroline Ryan is a tenderhearted third year in chemistry. She likes to hike, travel and play with her dog. She is also a Potterhead (she is definitely Hufflepuff).  

Avery is a fantastic first year! Welcome to the team!

Sara excels at many things including chemistry and graphic design!

Gabby is a fourth year in the Bachelors of Science in Nursing program. She is great with spreadsheets and in her space time, runs her own tutoring business.

Lauren is a fantastic high school volunteer! Welcome to the team!
