Biography

Completing PhD studies in Adelaide in 1999, Leonie Quinn conducted postdoctoral research at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre from 2000 to 2007. In 2007, Dr. Quinn established a laboratory at the University of Melbourne. In 2016, she relocated to the John Curtin School of Medical Research at Australian National University in Canberra to establish the Drosophila Cancer Models Group within the Department of Cancer Biology and Therapeutics. Her research utilizes Drosophila molecular genetic approaches to determine transcriptional networks that integrate extra- and intracellular signaling inputs to drive tissue growth. By deciphering pathways that control growth during normal development, her work aims to better understand the dysregulation of these networks in cancer.
