About me

A/Prof Gregory leads the Gene Regulation in Cancer Laboratory within the Centre for Cancer Biology. His research focusses on cancer cell plasticity (often called EMT) and metastasis in the context of breast and prostate cancer, and how these processes are regulated by dynamic changes in the transcriptome. He has specific expertise in the areas of microRNAs, RNA binding proteins, and alternative splicing. As an NHMRC Peter Doherty Training fellowship he made seminal discoveries about the functions of microRNAs in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a hallmark feature of cancer progression (Nature Cell Biol 2008, >4000 cites, Cancer Research 2008, >1000 cites). As a National Breast Cancer Foundation Early... Read more

Highlights

Tumour metastasis is the major cause of cancer related death in solid tumours such as the breast and prostate. My laboratory conducts research into understanding how tumour cells gain aggressive properties and spread throughout the body. We focus on identifying the importance of the molecular changes that occur as cells transition to aggressive forms, specifically on RNA changes involving microRNAs and alternative splicing (including circular RNAs).
