Overview
Background
Dr Drew Neavin is an NHMRC Early Leadership Fellow and the Group Leader of the Context-dependent Genetics Lab at the University of Queensland Institute for Molecular Bioscience.
Drew integrates statistical genetics with stem cell platforms and single-cell technologies to expand our understanding of genetic regulation across different contexts. She helped establish "village-in-a-dish" stem cell systems that enable high-throughput stem cell culture while reducing technical variability by co-culturing induced pluripotent stem cell lines from hundreds of individuals in a single cell culture dish. She applies this system along with other experimental models to study genetic regulation. She works across multiple disease systems with focuses in neuopsychiatric and cardiac, with a special focus on genetic modulation of drug response. She is keen to build large-scale resources that enable population genetics interrogation that consider diversity across multiple different axes.
