Utopia
Our research into paediatric infections brings together researchers from across UNSW and affiliated institutions. We aim to improve interventions and treatments for paediatric infections.
Molecular and Integrative Cystic Fibrosis Research Centre
Our lab is interested in understanding the cellular and molecular processes involved in the regulation of epithelial cell biology and how the breakdown of this regulation leads to pathogenesis of disease such as Cystic Fibrosis.
Gynaecological Cancer Research Group
We aim to improve outcomes in ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer and endometriosis.
