معرفی
Jill Finlayson is a Clinical Associate Professor at the University of Western Australia (UWA), affiliated with the UWA Medical School and the Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine. Her research focuses on molecular mechanisms underlying blood disorders, including β-thalassaemia, leukemia, and erythroblast biology. She contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to good health and well-being through her work on genetic and hematological diseases.
Her research interests include gene expression profiling in erythroid progenitor cells, molecular diagnostics for blood cancers like hairy cell leukaemia, and understanding cell cycle regulation and apoptosis in thalassaemia. Techniques employed include real-time polymerase chain reaction, mutation detection, and functional genomics.
Jill has published extensively on topics such as RNF187 regulation in erythroblasts, differential gene expression in thalassaemia, and clinical case studies like disseminated toxoplasmosis in immunocompromised patients. Her work bridges basic science and clinical applications in hematology and molecular pathology.
No scientific awards are explicitly listed in the provided text. She has supervised 2 research projects, though specific student names are not disclosed. Her lab’s focus aligns with translational research in blood disorders, leveraging molecular and cellular approaches to improve diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
