I am a reproductive biologist working to define key mechanisms for sperm development and function; and by extension the causes of human male infertility.
I am a reproductive physiologist who collaborates with a number of leading Hospital, University and Institute Research Groups nationally and internationally examining the potential of genetically modified pigs as organ, tissue and cell donors for humans.
I am a reproductive biologist - reproductive immunologist investigating the role of the female immune response and its cellular and molecular agents in establishing pregnancy. My research spans basic science and clinical and commercial transfer, and aims to improve our understanding of the factors determining optimal reproductive health in women leading to better treatments for infertility and pathologies of pregnancy, and the best possible health outcomes for babies and children.
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.
