Haematopoietic stem cell dysfunction in ageing and disease
Adult organs are maintained by specialised stem cells that persist throughout life thanks to their ability to make exact copies of themselves, all the time retaining the ability to on demand produce the differentiated component cells of the tissue of which they are a part. Read more
Molecular mechanisms of stem cell function in skeletal muscle ageing
The ability of skeletal muscles to regenerate in response to injury, exercise, growth or disease depends on a population of adult skeletal muscle stem cells. Read more
Integrating mechanical and chemical cues in stem cell migration and division
Adult stem cells are found in most tissues, and the interaction between stem cells and their niche tightly controls their self-renewal and differentiation state. Read more
PhD Student Position – Gene Regulation in Stem Cell Biology and Brain Development
The project will involve utilizing mouse models to dissect gene regulatory mechanisms that control neural stem cell development. Read more
Postgraduate Research Scholarship in Stem Cell Biology
Postgraduate Research Scholarship in Stem Cell Biology - Scholarships (sydney.edu.au). Read more
Stem Cells: Developing pluripotent stem cell models of inherited retinal diseases
Inherited retinal dystrophies are a leading cause of blindness and visual loss in the UK working age population. However, despite the widespread diagnostic use of next-generation sequencing, a molecular genetic diagnosis is unavailable for many patients world-wide. Read more
Harnessing cell competition to boost tissue repopulation in stem cell therapies
Cell competition is a fundamental biological process akin to natural selection at the cellular level. Through this selection process, cells that are relatively less fit, mis-specified or that harbour some oncogenic mutations are eliminated, and hence called losers, when in proximity of fitter cells, termed winners.

Mechanisms of Cancer Stem Cell Survival, Metastasis Formation and Immune Evasion in Cancer
Recent research suggests that cancer cells within a tumour represent a highly heterogeneous cell population. In particular many tumours contain small percentage of cells that share several characteristics with stem cells. Read more
Studying protein homeostasis in healthy and malignant stem cell development
The Grey lab studies the role of protein homeostasis in healthy and malignant haematopoietic (blood) stem cell development. We focus on the proteome of healthy stem cells as they mature in vivo, expand in vitro and their therapeutic use for bone marrow transplantation. Read more
Accelerated tissue regeneration through direct stem cell re-programming
Project ID. SST9. This project hypothesises that the genetic reprogramming of human mesenchymal stromal cells will lead to enhanced tissue regeneration through the increased production of growth factors, potentially aiding the development of personalised cell therapies. Read more
Understanding host-pathogen interaction during T. gondii infection using stem cell derived tissue organoids to inform drug therapy development (VC23010)
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to study host-pathogen interactions during Toxoplasma gondii infection to inform drug discovery and drug delivery. Read more
Therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles from different mesenchymal stem cell subtypes
Human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are found in adult tissues such as bone marrow and are able to differentiate into bone, cartilage and fat tissues. Read more
Dynamic cell fate decisions: linking mechanical signals and protein expression dynamics in the developing eye to understand human developmental disorders
Inherited developmental disorders account for much of childhood visual impairment. Development of the eye requires cell fate decisions that balance stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Read more
Identifying novel therapeutic targets in CMML
Chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) is a clonal stem cell neoplasm defined by abnormal monocytosis and dysplasia. A quarter of CMML patients progress to acute myeloid leukaemia and these patients have dismal prognosis. Read more
Basal stem cells in the lung and their recognition of dying cells
Stem cell division and differentiation is critical for barrier repair following inflammation, but the initial trigger for this process is unknown. Read more
