Amber Condell likes stories - both hearing them and telling them. That’s why she likes studying genetics.
A study led by researchers at ANU could lead to new treatments for combating drug-resistant malaria, as well as boost existing drugs.
In fiction and popular culture, parasitic characters appear as a metaphor for the threat and spread of disease.
My group focuses on understanding the function of integral membrane transporters and receptors from a structural perspective.
Professor Geoff McFadden has been awarded the Ralph Slatyer Medal for research in understanding the malaria parasite.
Stefan Bröer is looking for the right molecule for a biological target, that could be developed into a drug to treat diabetes. Now ANU has its own library of compounds, available to biological and medical researchers, managed by the Research School of Chemistry.

My PhD research investigates the formation, composition, and dynamics of lipid-rich compartments during blood-stage development of P. falciparum, using advanced microscopy techniques including Nile Red spectral imaging and 3D focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM).
Diagnose earlier and treat smarter is my policy to find cure for human diseases. The investigation of the disease progression at genome and proteome level can accurately tell us the medicinal tools to fix the problem.
Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels are essential for electrical signaling in excitable tissues, including the brain, heart, and muscles.
Many proteins migrate from cytoplasm to nucleus through their recognition by specialist receptors known as importins (IMPs).
Bacteriophages, with their intricate and highly specialized structures, represent some of the most fascinating architectures in the biological world. These viral entities serve as a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to chemical treatments in agriculture and as biocontrol agents against bacterial pathogens.
Natural products have long been celebrated as a treasure trove of therapeutic agents, serving as the foundation for many life-saving drugs. This general talk outlines possible approaches to the discovery and development of small molecule therapeutics for the treatment of inflammation and infectious diseases.
