Regenerative Medicine

Professor Allison Cowin is a leader in wound healing, internationally renowned for her work on the cytoskeletal protein Flightless I and how it negatively impacts on tissue repair. She is an NHMRC Senior Research Fellow and Professor of Regenerative Medicine at the Future Industries Institute UniSA, leading a group of 12 research scientists and students investigating all aspects of wound healing and regenerative biology. She has been awarded over $16M in grants including from the US Department of Defence and continuous NHMRC funding since 2004 for her work developing antibody technologies for the treatment of wounds. Her research has received special recognition from the NHMRC by inclusion in its ‘10 of the best... Read more

Highlights

The Cowin Laboratory focusses on developing new approaches to improve tissue repair and regeneration particularly in the context of wound healing. A range of projects are underway investigating the role of the cytoskeleton in cellular processes involved in wound repair as well as more applied research aimed at developing new delivery technologies for targeting specific therapies into wounds. From NHMRC funded research through to the involvement in two Cooperative research Centres Professor Cowin aims to improve the way wounds repair and reduce the prevalence of scar formation post burn injury.
