Mitchell S Stark

PeerJ Editor

Summary

For the past 20 years I have been actively working in the field of melanoma and naevi genomics. I have worked and performed my PhD candidature based at the QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute (1999-2015) and in 2015 I relocated as a Research Fellow in the Dermatology Research Centre, The University of Queensland Diamantina Institute. Over this time I have been working towards understanding the aetiology of melanoma, studying gene dysregulation during tumour progression along with predisposition to melanoma in families with high risk for melanoma development. My research group (genomics and miRNA biomarker discovery) based within the Dermatology Research Centre (UQDI) is currently engaged in miRNA biomarker and genomics research for early detection in melanoma, skin cancer (SCC), as well as non-small cell lung cancer.
