معرفی
Associate Professor Susanna Park is an academic in Neuroscience at the School of Medical Sciences, University of Sydney. She leads a research group investigating neuropathy and neuromuscular diseases, with a focus on chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity. Her work emphasizes clinical assessment tools and axonal degeneration mechanisms. Park holds affiliations with the Brain and Mind Centre and the Faculty of Medicine and Health.
- Education: PhD from University of New South Wales (UNSW)
- Notable Fellowships: RG Menzies/NHMRC Overseas Biomedical Fellowship (2011–2014)
Research Interests: Clinical neurophysiology, blood-based biomarkers, and motor neuron disorders. Her studies address nerve excitability, chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, and inflammatory neuropathies. Park’s translational work includes developing clinical tools for neuropathy assessment in cancer patients.
Publications focus on chemotherapy-induced neuropathy mechanisms, axonal degeneration, and biomarker discovery. Recent work explores electroacupuncture for neuropathy management and plasma lipidomics in risk assessment.
- Awards: 2022 SUPRA Supervisor of the Year finalist, 2018 RD Wright Fellowship
Labs/Teams: Brain and Mind Centre, collaborating with international consortia like the Toxic Neuropathy Consortium.
