Centre for Cancer Biology, Adelaide University

Professor Natasha Harvey is Head of the Lymphatic Development Laboratory and Director of the Centre for Cancer Biology at Adelaide University and a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Health and Medical Sciences. Natasha received her PhD from the University of Adelaide and undertook postdoctoral training in the laboratory of Guillermo Oliver at St Jude Children’s Research Hospital, USA. Here, she focussed on defining the role of the homeobox transcription factor PROX1 in lymphatic vascular development. In 2005, she returned to Adelaide to establish her independent research program. Natasha’s work aims to understand how the lymphatic vasculature is constructed during development and how this process “goes wrong” in human lymphatic vessel pathologies. Her work in this field has been published in Development, Blood, Journal of Clinical Investigation, Science Translational Medicine and Nature.

The host of this seminar is Mariona Graupera.
