Investigating chemistry
Our work ranges from developing probes for biologically-relevant metal ions to establishing ways to measure biological redox state to help us to better understand diseases.

Our research

There is currently considerable interest in elucidating the relationship between the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and health and disease: while transient increases in ROS levels are necessary for physiological processes, chronically-elevated ROS levels (oxidative stress) are associated with various pathologies. We develop fluorescent sensors for oxidative stress and for hypoxia (low oxygen content), with a focus on achieving sub-cellular resolution and ratiometric output. These sensors are being applied to a range of biological systems by collaborators around the world. 

Two of our redox probes can be purchased from Stressmarq Biosciences - please see the following links for more information: NpFR1 and FCR1. For enquiries about other published sensors, please contact Liz.       

Fluorescence offers a cheap alternative to mass spectrometry techniques for analysis of complex environments. We are developing sensor arrays to distinguish and quantify chemical species, especially metal ions, in the environment and in biological systems. 

Understanding the biochemical composition of cells, organelles and body fluids is essential for uncovering both physiological and pathological processes. This requires the development of chemical tools to complement current imaging and bioanalytical techniques. Multimodal imaging is gaining traction in biomedical and clinical studies as it combines the relative advantages of two or more imaging techniques. We are interested in developing multimodal imaging agents to combine fluorescence imaging with additional modalities. These additional modalities include vibrational spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence imaging, photoacoustic imaging and positron emission tomography. 
This work is funded in part by an ARC Discovery Grant, 2021-2024, with Prof. Hugh Harris University of Adelaide and an NHMRC Ideas Grant, 2023-2026, with Prof. Kay Double,and Prof. Hugh HarrisUniversity of Adelaide and an NHMRC Ideas Grant, 2023-2026, Prof. Steven Meikle, The University of Sydney.

We are part of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Innovations in Peptide and Protein Science, which focusses on discovering new proteins and peptides from Australia's diverse flora and fauna, decoding their biological functions, and developing new proteins and peptides to address challenges in health, agriculture and industry. Our role in this is to develop new fluorescent methods for understanding how and where peptides and proteins accumulate within cells.
