I am a physiologist with expertise in endocrinology determining the roles of particular regulatory peptides in the normal functions of the gastrointestinal tract and in the development of gastrointestinal, renal and prostate cancers.
I am a cellular physiologist investigating the role of ion channels, receptors and intracellular signalling systems in the control of hormone secretion from endocrine cells, contraction of cardiac myocytes and to a lesser extent, growth of endometrium can
I am a peptide and protein chemist principally engaged in the study of the structure and function relationships of insulin-like peptides and the development of their therapeutic potential.
This fellowship will support a clinical researcher whose focus is improving metabolic and reproductive health by manipulating hormones and improving sleep. This will be achieved from a platform of NHMRC project grants and a NHMRC CCRE in interdisciplinary sleep health.
