Dr Anson Tan is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Queensland Brain Institute, University of Queensland, specializing in molecular mechanisms of membrane trafficking in neurons. His work explores how dysregulated trafficking contributes to neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., ALS, Alzheimer's) and neuropsychiatric disorders.
- Education: PhD in Protein Trafficking (University of Melbourne, 2018)
- Research Interests: Synaptic transmission, protein sorting, DNA repair in neurodegeneration
Scientific Awards include the UQ Postdoctoral Researcher Retention Fellowship (2022), Dean’s Honour List (University of Melbourne, 2012), and Best Poster Award (COMBIO 2015). He has published extensively on Golgi trafficking, amyloid processing, and calcium signaling in synaptic plasticity.
- Recent Publications:
- FTO suppresses DNA repair by inhibiting PARP1 (2025)
- Copine-6 is a Ca2+ sensor for AMPA receptor exocytosis (2023)
- ALS-associated SFPQ mutations and cytoplasmic aggregates (2022)
Dr Tan is currently affiliated with the Clem Jones Centre for Ageing Dementia Research and advises on projects related to epigenetic regulation of memory, synaptic signaling, and Copine-6 lipid-binding mechanisms. He collaborates with Professor Victor Anggono and Dr Jocelyn Widagdo on neurotrafficking studies.
