I am a Clinician-Researcher in Haematology passionate about research discovery to better understand blood cancers and clinical translation to improve patient outcomes. I am an active clinical Haematologist (FRACP), Haematopathologist (FRCPA) and post-doctoral researcher (University of Queensland (UQ) and QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute). Following specialist qualifications, I embarked on a translational science PhD in Leukaemia biology at the University of Queensland (UQ) (conferred 2019). To translate that knowledge clinically, I undertook an additional qualification in diagnostic molecular haematology and commenced clinically-focussed research into frailty and its interaction with leukaemia biology to determine prognosis and treatment response. Within my research program in frailty, I provide direct supervision to medical and nursing early career researchers, fostering development of research capacity.

Dr. Guoquan Liu has more than ten years experience in sorghum tissue culture and genetic transformation. He developed a highly efficient sorghum particle transformation system in 2012. Since then, hundreds of transgenic plants have been regenerated from tens of constructs that are invoved in plant disease resistant genes (e.g. Lr34), report gene (gfp), specific-promoters (e.g. alpha- beta- kafirin, A2, LSG), G proteins etc.. He has trained many students how to transform sorghum including honor students, master students, and PhD students.

He has focused on improving sorghum grain yield and grain quality through biotechnologies including genetic transformation, genome-editing, synthetic biology, and plant apomixis.

Shuang is an internationally recognised intercultural communication expert, specialising in the areas of ageing and immigration, acculturation, identity negotiation, and intercultural relations. Her research examines how older people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds build a sense of home as they live and age in a foreign land; how family and community care can be integrated to provide culturally appropriate, accessible and sustainale care for older people; how older people interact with their physical, social, cultural, and digital environments to develop attachment to place; and the consequences of these interactions for well-being. Shuang's work has been published in high-ranking international journals, and two sole authored books: Identity, hybirdity and cultural home (2015; Rowman & Littlefield) and Chinese migrants ageing in a foreign land (2019; Routledge). Her lead-authored textbook, Introducing intercultural communication: Global cultures and contexts, is in its 4th edition, and previous three editions have been adopted in 26 countries across 4 continents, with holdings in libraries of prestigeous institutions including Stanford University, Yale University, University of Oxford, University of Cape Town, and University of Zurich.
