Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD - email supervisor to discuss availability.


Associate Professor Robert Bryant is Head of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease service at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Research Lead at the Basil Hetzel Institute, Chair of the Gastroenterology Network of Intestinal Ultrasound (GENIUS), a member of the GESA IBD Faculty, and Clinical Associate Professor at the University of Adelaide.

Rob undertook a Clinical Fellowship in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, after which he completed a Master of Science by Research (MScR) at the University of Oxford in the field of genetics and mucosal immunology in IBD. He thereafter completed a PhD at the University of Adelaide in the area of treatment targets in IBD, for which he was awarded a University Medal.

Rob leads the intestinal ultrasound service at TQEH and coordinates a clinical and translational research program exploring microbial therapy in IBD, both through diet and faecal microbial transplantation. He has been awarded the Michell McGrath Fellowship from The Hospital Research Foundation to pursue microbial manipulation in IBD.
