Biography

The Gilan laboratory at the Australian Centre for Blood Diseases explores the epigenetic landscapes of leukaemia cells and the role they play in response to and resistance against therapy, as well as the adaptation and maintenance of a leukaemic stem-like state. The ultimate goal of the research is to develop strategies that can reset the cells back to a normal state for therapeutic benefit. The expertise of the laboratory aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goals established in 2015, aiming to end poverty and protect the planet through relevant research contributions. Key research interests include haematopoiesis, acute myeloid leukaemia, mixed lineage leukaemia, chromatin biology, and gene regulation.
