Summary
I have been a Fellow 19 years. It allows me to think strategically on a broader canvass. I am a world authority in endocytosis (how cells interact with the outside world), drug discovery, and protein function, in disciplines of neuroscience and cancer. The outcome will be the first human trials of endocytosis modulators in cancer and epilepsy. Secondly, we will use our new International ProCan Centre to produce a transformational rapid cancer diagnostic and provide new cancer treatment options.

Summary
Our research aims to describe and understand newly identified nerve pathways or 'networks' in brain that control physiological homeostasis or balance and complex behaviours, including levels of arousal and motivation, sleep/wake patterns, learning and memory, and emotions such as fear and anxiety
