Professor Frank Grützner received his PhD at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Berlin in 2001. In the same year he moved to the Australian National University where he led and international team that resolved the longstanding controversy about the complex sex chromosome system in the platypus. In 2005 he moved to the University of Adelaide, where he is associate Head Research and group leader at the School of Biological Sciences. Dr Grutzner has worked in the field of comparative genome biology in many different species and published extensively in leading international journals including Nature, Nature Genetics and Science. For the past 20 years he has been instrumental in establishing monotremes as a key species for research in comparative genomics and mammalian evolution.Dr Grutzner is passionate about engagement with the community and with his group and collaborators he established a award winning community based research project on echidna conservation and research (EchidnaCSI).

He has won several awards for his research including the Eppendorf Medal for the Young Australian Investigator (2005) and the Tall Poppy Science Award (2007/8) and SA Science Excellence awards in Citizen Science (2021). His research has been supported by competitive ARC research fellowships and grants since 2003.

Comparative Genome Biology

Our research aims to understand how different animal genomes evolved, how they are organised and how this effects their function. We use our results to better understand genome evolution and function but also to apply our novel insights to human disease and animal conservation. Our main species of interest are the iconic egg-laying mammals, the duck-billed platypus and short-beaked echidna. As the oldest surviving mammalian lineage these extraordinary animals provide valuable insights into mammalian evolution and human disease.

current research areas:

Sex chromosome evolution and function in mammals

Sex determination in monotremes

Evolution and function of genes involved in metabolic control

Evolution of non coding RNAs in reproduction

Application and development of molecular tools, citizen science to aid monotreme field biology, conservation and captive breeding

Investigating participation and diversity in citizen science

The Monotreme Resource Centre

Egg-laying mammals feature extraordinary biology and are the oldest surviving mammal. Platypus and echidna caputure the interest of researchers worl wide ever since the first specimen were send to England in 1798. Access to material from these animals has always been the limiting factor for research to better understand the biology of these animals. Since 2001 we have assembled a world-wide unique collection of well over 1000 specimen of tissues from platypus and echidna which are availbale for research. This has resulted in breakthrough research including monotremes and new datasets that are available to the research community to use to better understand mammalian evolution. Please contact us for more information about the collection and collaborative opportunities.
