Outstanding facilities and commitment to discovery makes our School in demand among the brightest minds in biomedical research. Here are just a few of the leaders contributing to our world-changing research.
-
Professor Erica Fletcher
"The School of Biomedical Sciences is one of the leading places for neuroscience research, and has arguably the largest collection of researchers interested in vision problems in the country"
-
Professor Garron Dodd
"My vision is to develop effective treatments for metabolic diseases to save lives and improve people’s quality of life across the globe."
-
Professor Laura Mackay
"There are so many opportunities to collaborate with world class scientists and clinicians in the Biomedical Precinct and I’ve definitely been able to capitalise on that."
-
Professor Jennifer Wilkinson-Berka
"The major aim of our research is to understand the factors leading to causes of vision loss and blindness across the globe - including retinopathy of prematurity and diabetic retinopathy."
-
Professor Stephen Kent
"These are truly exciting times…'immunotherapies' have revolutionised the treatment of advanced-stage cancer patients - and in some patients can even drive complete cure."
-
Professor Danny Hatters
"I really enjoy the problem-solving aspects of biomedical research and thinking outside the box to solve the challenging problems."
-
Dr Elena Schneider
"We focus on understanding pharmacology in respiratory diseases such as cystic fibrosis including during lung infection and pregnancy"

Professor Thomas Gebhardt
"These are truly exciting times…'immunotherapies' have revolutionised the treatment of advanced-stage cancer patients - and in some patients can even drive complete cure."
-
Professor Stuart Ralph
"My research explores how the body reacts to infectious disease, how we discover new drugs and vaccines to combat infectious diseases."
-
Professor Chris McDevitt
"My research explores how the body reacts to infectious disease, how we discover new drugs and vaccines to combat infectious diseases."
-
Professor Peter Crack
"We are developing new medicines that calm harmful brain inflammation after traumatic brain injury. Our goal is to reduce ongoing brain damage and support recovery, not just treat the immediate injury."
