GIH research team photo

The GIH research team of scientists provide expertise in both traditional "wet" laboratory techniques and "dry" bioinformatic analysis methods for genomic research in a range of organisms. It is this collective experience that places GIH in an optimal position to develop innovative genomic capabilities at UQ.

Key areas of experience within the team include:

  • Single-cell sequencing and library preparation
  • Long read sequencing 
  • Protein engineering and purification
  • Genome editing and manipulation
  • Spatial transcriptomics and advanced imaging
  • Bioinformatic assembly of complex genomes
  • Transcriptomics
  • High throughput genetic screening platforms
  • Computational tool development for analysis of genomic and transcriptomic data
  • DNA and RNA extraction from difficult sources
  • Microfluidic partitioning and barcoding for single-cell analysis
