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.

Scientific and technological advancements in the field of cell physiology over the last thirty years have uncovered the identities and functions of over sixty solute carriers which participate in the transport of amino acids in mammalian cells.
Many genes that have been recently identified as determinants of drug resistance in the malaria parasite encode membrane transport proteins (also known as transporters).
