Associate Professor Pascal Duijf received a PhD degree in Human Genetics from Radboud University Nijmegen in the Netherlands. As a postdoctoral fellow, he trained in cancer biology and genetics at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. He then moved to Brisbane, first to University of Queensland and then to Queensland University of Technology, to establish and lead a research group studying genomic instability in cancer. Currently, he is an Enterprise Fellow at UniSA, within the Centre for Cancer Biology and UniSA Clinical and Health Sciences. His research aims to study genomic instability in cancer in order to understand underlying mechanisms and develop new treatment options for patients. To that end, his group uses a broad range of wet-lab and dry-lab tools, including in cell biology, genome engineering, mouse models, pathology, cancer genomics, bioinformatics and computational biology.
