I am a reproductive physiologist investigating the nature and actions of hormones, particularly steroids and transforming growth factor-? superfamily members, regulating follicle growth and oocyte quality in the ovary, implantation and breakthrough bleedi
I investigate the regulation of blood flow in skeletal muscle and the control of muscle metabolism. In particular, my research focuses on the action of insulin on the microvasculature and the consequences of impairments of this function in obesity, hypert
The applicant's research is aimed at delineating the molecular mechanisms of action of steroid hormones in the pathogenesis of breast and prostate cancer with the goal of developing new diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic response parameters of clinica
I am a cell biologist-whole body physiologist determining the cellular and molecular mechanisms that lead to insulin resistance in insulin sensitive tissues such as skeletal muscle, liver and adipose tissue. My work primarily focuses on the role of inflam
I am a pharmacologist-cell biologist-molecular biologist and chemist examining the metabolism of iron in normal and neoplastic cells and the development of iron chelators for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases eg., ?-thalassaemia, cancer and Frie
