Mirana Ramialison

Mirana Ramialison is a Professor at Monash University, affiliated with both the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute and Victorian Heart Institute (VHI). She maintains an active research program with significant contributions to cardiovascular development and regenerative medicine.

Her research interests focus on understanding the role of non-coding DNA regulatory elements in heart development and disease, formation of boundaries in developing embryos, and molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac function. She employs cutting-edge genomic, computational, and imaging approaches to investigate gene regulatory networks that govern cardiovascular development.

Her recent publications demonstrate expertise in spatial transcriptomics, machine learning applications in epigenomics, and the use of vertebrate models like the African killifish to study aging processes. Her work spans developmental biology, genomics, and computational approaches to understand heart development and disease mechanisms.

Professor Ramialison leads multiple significant research projects including 'Role of human non-coding DNA regulatory elements (REs) in heart development and disease' as Primary Chief Investigator, and collaborates on projects related to chemotherapy-induced heart damage prevention and bone growth mechanisms.

She has produced 71 research outputs with notable recent publications in high-impact journals including Nature Cardiovascular Research, Genome Biology, and Communications Biology, demonstrating sustained scholarly productivity and impact in her field.
