Dr. Andrew J. Woo completed a Bachelor of Science with Honours and a Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry at The University of Western Australia in 2004. He began his postdoctoral training under the mentorship of Dr. Alan B. Cantor at Children's Hospital Boston and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at Harvard Medical School in Boston, USA. His research focuses on transcriptional gene regulation, contributing to the study of blood disorders and cancer stem cell biology, published in renowned journals such as Cell, Journal of Clinical Investigation, Molecular Cell, Genes & Development, Nature Communications, and Blood. In 2012, he returned to Perth with a fellowship from the Royal Perth Hospital Medical Research Foundation. His research approaches include protein-protein interaction identification, protein-DNA interaction mapping, transcriptomics, functional genomics, and the development of transgenic mouse models. Andrew Woo has served as a postdoctoral research fellow in Hematology and Oncology and currently holds a position as a lecturer and unit coordinator at Edith Cowan University, focusing on understanding the transcriptional regulatory mechanisms in stem and progenitor cells and studying tumor metastasis.
