Prof Stacey Edwards is Head of the Functional Cancer Genomics Laboratory at QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute. She received her PhD in Biochemistry at the University of Queensland (UQ). Her postdoctoral training was carried out at the Breakthrough Breast Cancer Research Centre in London, funded by an NHMRC CJ Martin Fellowship. She returned to UQ in 2010 and was awarded a National Breast Cancer Foundation Fellowship to identify new mutation targets in breast cancer susceptibility genes. She was recruited to QIMR Berghofer in 2013, where the primary focus of her research program is to use molecular approaches to identify new breast and ovarian cancer genes, and to translate the findings into improved prevention and treatment.
