Associate Professor Kelly Williams leads the Advanced Gene Discovery Team at the Macquarie University Centre for Motor Neuron Disease (MND) Research. Since completing her PhD in 2013, she has received several fellowships focused on genetic and genomic research in MND. Williams is recognized as one of Australia's leading early career researchers in MND and has played a crucial role in identifying causal mutations linked to the disease. Her seminal discoveries have contributed significantly to understanding the relationship between MND and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), leading to advancements in clinical practices such as pre-symptomatic testing and preimplantation genetic diagnosis. The Genomics & Bioinformatics team under her leadership is dedicated to innovative research themes, including uncovering genetic relatedness in MND and exploring bioinformatics and biostatistical analysis of omics datasets. Williams is also involved in teaching and offers a LaTeX Overleaf training course for higher degree research students and supervisors.
