Anne Brüstle is the group leader in the Division of Immunology and Infectious Disease at the John Curtin School of Medical Research, Australian National University. Her research primarily focuses on the immune populations driving the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS), a common neurodegenerative condition affecting young adults. The group investigates key immune mechanisms using laboratory models to understand the biological principles underlying the disease process. Through collaborations with diverse industrial partners, they aim to evaluate potential new targets for innovative MS treatments and further decipher the mechanisms of neuroinflammation. Brüstle has been recognized for her contributions to the MS community, receiving the Young Tall Poppy Award in 2018 and holding a senior research fellowship at MS Australia. She is also involved in the 'Our Health Hands' program, which develops personalized monitoring and management approaches for chronic autoimmune conditions, including MS and diabetes. Anne completed her PhD in Human Biology in 2008 at the Institute of Medical Microbiology, Philipps-University Marburg, Germany, and was previously a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Toronto, Canada, before joining ANU in mid-2014. Currently, she serves as the Associate Dean of Higher Degree Research in the College of Health and Medicine, where she supervises research students in her field.
