Fiona&#8217;s defended her thesis entitled &#8221; &#8220;Discovery of conserved motifs in MARCO through evolutionary analyses and molecular biology&#8221;. Her work on the evolution of the class A scavenger receptors has resulted in a better understanding of their relationship and grouping as a family and has lead to interesting hints as to which regions are conserved (and are presumably important functionally) within MARCO and across all the class A scavenger receptors. She defended exceptionally well.
