Ross Dickins is an Associate Professor and head of the laboratory at the Australian Centre for Blood Diseases, Monash University, located at Alfred Hospital. His postdoctoral work in New York contributed to the development of RNA interference technology, which enabled reversible inhibition of endogenous gene expression in cultured cells and mice. His current research focuses on hematopoiesis and leukemia, particularly on genes that are recurrently mutated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). He is particularly interested in understanding mutations that affect transcription factors and impose maturation blocks in acute leukemia, as well as novel approaches to trigger differentiation and prevent relapse in leukemia. Furthermore, his lab studies how myeloid lineage antigen-presenting cells regulate T cell co-stimulation in the contexts of autoimmunity and cancer. Ross accepts PhD students and supervises projects related to immunotherapy and leukemia differentiation.
