Dr Logan is a Senior Lecturer in Laboratory Medicine and Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia Future Leader fellow within the Mechanisms in Cell Biology and Disease research group (MICBAD). She is an accredited medical scientist with an extensive skill base in histology, in situ hybridisation and immunohistochemistry. Her work is central to the ongoing MICBAD cancer biomarker research program in prostate cancer and extending into other clinically significant cancers. She has exceptional output of high-quality, impactful research which is strategically structured towards industry translation.
Her research is driven towards developing an in-depth understanding of cellular regulatory pathways underpinning disease pathology while also identifying novel drug targets and  providing alternative treatment strategies.
