Yimon Aye ( Burmese: ရည်မွန်အေး; born 12 July 1980 [1] in Burma) is an American chemist and molecular biologist. Currently she is an associate professor of chemistry at EPFL. [2]
Career
Aye spent her early life in Burma. She completed her undergraduate studies in chemistry at the University of Oxford and obtained her master's degree in 2004. [3] She joined Harvard University to study synthetic organic chemistry with David A. Evans, achieving her PhD in 2009. [4] She then moved to Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation fellow to work with JoAnne Stubbe. There she performed research into the regulatory mechanisms of ribonucleotide reductase. [5] In 2012, she started as an assistant professor at Cornell University, where she began her work on redox-dependent cell signaling and genome maintenance pathways. During this time, she developed REX technologies, new methods to facilitate the study of unconventional electrophile-regulated stress signaling paradigms. [6] [7] REX technologies were one of the first approaches to forge direct links between upstream protein alteration by a reactive molecule and downstream responses. [4]
In 2018, she was appointed as an associate professor of chemistry at EPFL. [2] Since August 2018, she has been leading the Laboratory of Electrophiles And Genome Operation (LEAGO) of the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering (ISIC) at EPFL. [8]
Personal life
Yimon Aye's father Soe Thein is a former Commander-in-Chief of the Myanmar Navy. [9] She has one brother, Aye Chan (b. 1973) and one sister, Thida Aye (b. 1973). [1]
