About
I am a group leader at Institut Pasteur, Paris, France (since October 2023), and I have a split appointment at the Doherty Institute in the University of Melbourne. Prior to coming to France I spent most of my time in Australia. I was awarded my PhD at the University of Sydney in 2015, with an award from the Faculty of Science and from the Genetics Society of Australasia. I also hold the title of Accredited Statistician from the Australian Statistical Society. After my PhD I conducted postdoctoral work at the same institution for 18 months. In 2016 I joined the University of Melbourne through an internal fellowship scheme, the McKenzie fellowship, and have been consistently funded by extramural sources. From 2019 to 2022 I was a Discovery Early Career Fellow (DECRA - Australian Research Council). From 2022 I was junior group leader (equivalent to Assistant Professor) funded through a Future Fellowship from the Australian Research Council and a National Health and Medical Research Council Emerging leader Level 2.
I have supervised four postdoctoral researchers through my own funding, three PhD students to completion, four Masters in bioinformatics, and one in honours. My research articles and updated citation metrics are available here.
