معرفی
Associate Professor Victor Anggono is an ARC Future Fellow and Group Leader at the Queensland Brain Institute (QBI), University of Queensland, with an affiliation as an Associate Professor at the Clem Jones Centre for Ageing Dementia Research. His research focuses on synaptic neurobiology, particularly mechanisms regulating neuronal membrane trafficking and epitranscriptomic processes during learning, memory, and neurodegeneration.
Anggono earned his PhD from the University of Sydney and completed postdoctoral training at Johns Hopkins University. He joined QBI in 2012 as an NHMRC CJ Martin Research Fellow and has since led studies on synaptic vesicle trafficking, AMPA receptor dynamics, and RNA modifications in neurons. His work combines molecular biology, mouse models, proteomics, and behavioral analyses.
Key research areas include: synaptic plasticity, neuronal trafficking pathways, and RNA epigenetics. He has published in top journals like Nature Neuroscience and Neuron, with over 1,500 citations. Notable awards include the Young Investigator Award (Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry, 2016) and Science to Art Award (NHMRC, 2015).
His team investigates how dysregulated mechanisms contribute to Alzheimer’s disease and neuropsychiatric disorders. Current projects explore FTO’s role in DNA repair, AMPA receptor ubiquitination, and learning-induced synaptic remodeling. Students and postdocs in his group study molecular and cellular neuroscience using advanced imaging and genetic tools.
