About
I was born in hot, dry Perth on the western side of Australia and grew up in Melbourne in the southeast corner. Imagine Ramsey Street from "Neighbours". That's pretty much were I grew up (actually it was filmed about 5 mins bike ride from my home). It was in Melbourne that I went to high school and then studied Science at Monash University. At the tender age of 21 I packed my bags and left Australia to do a Ph.D in Hong Kong. After 5 great years in that wonderful city I moved to Kyoto, Japan to do a postdoc in Molecular Genetics. There my interest in blood cell production really picked up. My four years in a wonderful lab in the beautiful city of Kyoto was followed with a brief spell in Mainz, Germany, the home of the inventor of the printing press. Then, I was off to New York City where I was assistant professor in Hematology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Three years ago I headed back to Australia, to the beautiful city of Sydney where I started my lab and do lots of teaching.
