Amandeep Kaur

Dr. Amandeep Kaur is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the John Curtin School of Medical Research (JCSMR), Australian National University. Her work focuses on platelet biology, thrombosis, and cancer-related molecular mechanisms, with affiliations in the Division of Genome Sciences and Cancer and active participation in The Gardiner Group.

Research Interests: Her studies span platelet function in hematologic malignancies, protease inhibition via ADAM10 and TIMPs, mitophagy regulation, and methodological advancements in blood cell analysis. This includes translational research on Waldenström macroglobulinemia and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.

Publications demonstrate expertise in thrombosis, cancer biology, and molecular hematology, with recurring themes in platelet signaling, proteolytic pathways, and mitochondrial stress management.

Scientific Awards:

• JCSMR Gender Equity Fund Grant (2021)

Projects: Currently investigating molecular pathways controlling platelet production (2023-2025) and evaluating RNA polymerase I inhibitors for chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (completed, 2022-2023).

Labs & Teams: Collaborates with the Gardiner Group, focusing on thrombosis and cancer research, and works with co-investigators like Professors Robert Gardiner and Roger K. Andrews.
