Melanie Carless

Melanie Carless is an Associate Professor in the Department of Neuroscience, Developmental and Regenerative Biology within the College of Sciences at The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). Her research focuses on the intersection of neuroscience and metabolic health, with a strong emphasis on developmental and regenerative mechanisms.

Education:

• Ph.D., Griffith University, Gold Coast
• BHSc (Hons), Griffith University, Gold Coast
• BSc in Applied Biology, Griffith University, Gold Coast

Her primary research interests include cardiometabolic risk, epigenetics, neurological and psychiatric disorders, and stem cells. These areas reflect a multidisciplinary approach aimed at understanding the biological underpinnings of complex diseases affecting both brain and metabolic systems. Her work integrates molecular, cellular, and systems-level perspectives to explore disease mechanisms and potential regenerative therapies.
