Translational cancer research

Cancer immunology, from the bench to the clinic

I have spent more than ten years studying how tumours hide from the immune system. Some of that work is becoming diagnostic tools and analysis software for clinicians. Some of it feeds the biology behind new treatments. The aim is precision oncology that is faster, more accurate, and available outside a few specialist centres.

Senior Research Officer at WEHI, Melbourne. Translational cancer researcher in tumour immunology, spatial biology, and AI for pathology.

Research portfolio

Five research programs

Tumour immunology, spatial imaging, AI, the clinic, and drug discovery.

Explore the research
One tumour signal read three ways: prognostic, predictive, and target-identifying.

Future vision

One signal, three answers

Where biomarkers take the work next: prognosis, response, and the next target.

Artificial intelligence

My vision for AI in science

Every leap in biology was a tool. The next ones will be built by working scientists, with AI, and I want to help make that the normal move.
