Dr Katherine Locock completed her Ph.D. degree at the University of Sydney in 2010 under the supervision of Professors Robin Allan and Graham Johnston, where she studied the development of conformationally restricted GABA analogues as potential treatments for Alzheimer’s disease and mood disorders. She was later employed as an associate lecturer in the Pharmacology Department at the University. In 2012, Dr Locock joined CSIRO as an OCE Postdoctoral Fellow in the Materials Science and Engineering Division before being appointed as a Research Scientist in the Manufacturing Flagship in 2015. Dr Locock’s research focuses on the development of novel, biologically active polymers, based on CSIRO’s patented RAFT technology. Her work has led to a number of publications, a book chapter, and invitations to speak internationally. She was awarded the CSIRO Staff Association Women in Science Scholarship in 2013, and in 2014 was selected by the UK Royal Society as one of 30 researchers to represent Australia at the Commonwealth Sciences Conference in Bangalore, India.
