Katie Jee
Katie Jee is a PhD student at the University of the Sunshine Coast studying arachnid venom peptides as a source of bioinsecticides for locusts. She is particularly interested in the molecular targets and modes of action of insecticidal arachnid venom peptides. She is also interested in studying arachnid venom peptides permeability through the insect blood-brain barrier. Previous topics have included using arachnid venom peptides against the paralysis tick Ixodes holocyclus and comparing the activity of arachnid venom peptides between species in the order Orthoptera.
