Dr James Triplett: James is a first year PhD candidate at the University of Adelaide, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. James' PhD studies focus on the pathophysiology and neurophysiological markers of diabetic neuropathy including the association of abnormal sphingolipid metabolism in the development of diabetic neuropathy. He has published previously in neurophysiological techniques and a variety of neuromuscular and neuro-immunological conditions.
