About
I am a Senior Research Officer at QIMR Berghofer. As a cardiovascular pharmacologist, my research has focussed on novel aspects of cell signalling and receptor biology, with publications in Cell, PNAS, Brit J Pharmacol.
After my BA/BSc (Hons) degrees (University of Melbourne) and PhD (University of Queensland), I led a large project on orphan GPCRs in Denmark, supported by consecutive Postdoctoral fellowships from Lundbeck Foundation and Danish Council for Independent Research. I returned to Australia in 2018 to Monash University to work on chemokine receptors and joined the Cardiac Bioengineering Group at QIMR Berghofer in late 2020.
Supported by a Bellberry-Viertel Fellowship, I am now combining my expertise in cardiovascular biology, cell signalling and drug discovery with the cardiac organoid platform to discover new cardiac fibrosis targets.
