Anya Arthurs
Robinson Research Institute
Division of Research and Innovation
Dr Anya Arthurs is a Future Making Fellow, working with Professor Jose Polo in ACE and the Robinson Research Institute. After completing her PhD (University of Newcastle) in the field of post-transcriptional modifications in the placenta, Anya moved to Flinders University in 2019 for a postdoctoral position studying the mechanisms by which circular RNAs, as well as other non-coding RNAs, are able to facilitate the development of the placenta and contribute to pregnancy complications. Her interests include the involvement of epigenetics and non-coding RNAs in various aspects of human development and disease, particularly in reproductive health and placental ageing. From her research, she hopes to elucidate fundamental biological mechanisms, as well as deliver diagnostic tests that will inform clinical decision-making and aid in identifying drug targets for novel therapeutics.
