Dr. Jana Talbot serves as a Research Fellow at the Wicking Dementia Research Education Centre, University of Tasmania. Her research focuses on neurodegenerative diseases, particularly CLN3 disease and lysosomal dysfunction, using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), genetic editing, and cellular models. She explores mechanisms of photoreceptor degeneration, excitotoxicity, and biochemistry pathways in neurodegeneration.
Her work integrates stem cell biology with advanced imaging techniques like fluorescent biosensors to model disease progression. Key areas include understanding phagocytosis defects in retinal cells and metabolic interactions in chlorophyll synthesis. Collaborations emphasize translational research for disease modeling and therapeutic discovery.
Publications highlight contributions to CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing methodologies and the application of iPSC-derived pericytes in studying vascular biology. She has no listed scientific awards but maintains active research output across multiple high-impact journals.
