EMBL Australia group leaders are deeply integrated into Australian and international networks of excellence. They have established themselves as scientists and drive research and innovation in areas of national scientific priority.
Prof Max Cryle, a Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute researcher whose nine-year tenure as an EMBL Australia group leader recently ended, leads the Victorian node of the $35M Australian Research Council (ARC) Centre of Excellence for Innovations in Peptide and Protein Science and oversees its training and mentoring programs.
Current group leaders Prof Eduardo Eyras (ANU) and A/Prof Richard Morris (UNSW Sydney) are chief investigators in the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Mathematical Analysis of Cellular Systems, which applies advanced mathematics to model biological processes and develop biotechnological applications, and partners with the NCRIS-funded Bioplatforms Australia.
Australia’s ARC Centres of Excellence are hubs of expertise, fostering collaboration and advancing Australia’s global research standing in areas of national importance.
