Dr Qian Du

 Dr Qian Du’s research focuses on understanding the influence of DNA replication timing on the genome and epigenome in breast and prostate cancer. Qian completed her Bachelor of Science (Hons) at the University of Melbourne, where she studied zebrafish models of colorectal cancer. Following her interests in epigenetics, Qian completed a PhD from University of New South Wales with Professor Sue Clark’s group in the Genomics and Epigenetics Division at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, where she began her work on DNA replication timing and the cancer epigenome. In 2019, Qian received a National Health and Medical Research Council Investigator Grant Fellowship to continue her work.
