About
Peter Boag is an Associate Professor at Monash University's Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, affiliated with the Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute. His research focuses on RNA biology, small RNA pathways, and gene regulation in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans, with applications in biomedical discovery and parasitology.
- Key research areas: RNA-protein interactions, germ cell development, and anthelmintic drug discovery.
- External affiliation: Adjunct role at the University of Melbourne.
Research Trends: The latest publications highlight genomic integrity in C. elegans (2024), miRNA pathways (2024), anthelmintic screening methodologies (2022-2021), translational regulation mechanisms (2020), and epigenetic inheritance studies (2018). Articles consistently emphasize the role of RNA biology in developmental processes and biomedical applications.
Projects: Current initiatives include Biomolecular Condensates in mRNA Regulation (2024-2027) and collaborations on food-borne parasite interventions. Past projects explored RIO kinases (2013-2015) and RNA salon platforms (2017).
