Jessica Stringer's research focuses on understanding the chemical environmental impacts on genome integrity and genetic non-genetic inheritance related to female fertility. She obtained her PhD from the University of Melbourne in 2012, investigating the evolution and functional importance of genomic imprinting, a known example of inherited epigenetic information that mediates parent-specific gene expression essential for development. After completing postdoctoral studies with Associate Professor Western at the Hudson Institute of Medical Research, she identified new mechanisms regulating the transmission of epigenetic information from parent to offspring. In 2016, Dr. Stringer began working with Associate Professor Hutt at Monash University to investigate the importance of DNA damage repair on oocyte quality and the resulting female fertility impacts on offspring health. She has significantly identified DNA repair mechanisms responsible for safeguarding primordial follicle oocytes. Her current research aims to improve women’s health and fertility related to maternal aging, develop new therapeutic strategies to protect female fertility during anti-cancer therapy, and ensure these therapeutic strategies do not negatively impact offspring health.
