Rachael Dunlop

Rachael Anne Dunlop, popularly known as Dr. Rachie, is an Australian medical researcher and sceptic. She is a postdoctoral fellow in cell biology at the University of Technology, Sydney. In 2013 she and her colleagues discovered that an amino acid produced by cyanobacteria can trigger the onset of motor neurone disease, and this research may help lead to a treatment for this fatal disease. A prominent member of the Australian sceptic movement, she frequently blogs about and speaks out against the anti-vaccine movement in Australia and has a regular segment on The Skeptic Zone podcast. Dunlop won a Shorty Award in 2010 for her Twitter posts about health-related topics.
