Doctor Jasmine Grinyer

• Contact Details (opens in a new window)

Dr Jasmine Grinyer is Senior Research Officer (Rural Industries) and provides research support for projects aimed at solving problems identified by industry partners, particularly in the area of soil biology. Prior to taking this position, Jasmine worked at Macquarie University as a Research Fellow for 8 years and at Proteome Systems Ltd as a researcher for 6 years. Jasmine's research experience includes investigating the protein secretion pathways in fungi, and determining how bacteria bind to the oral and gastrointestinal environments. Jasmine has a particular interest in the role of glycosylated molecules involved in pathogen binding.

Dr Jasmine Grinyer earned her PhD in 2006 from the Department of Chemistry and Biomolecular Science at Macquarie University, Sydney under the supervision of Prof. Helena Nevalainen and Assoc. Prof. Ben Herbert. Her PhD thesis explored the biological control mechanism utilised by the filamentous fungus, Trichoderma atroviride to protect plants against fungal pathogens. Jasmine completed her Diploma in Education (Secondary Science) in 2009 and maintains a keen interest in science education at both secondary and tertiary levels.
