Dr Nicole Cloonan
Nicole is a UQ Postdoctoral Research Fellow enjoying her time in "Group Grimmond". Her work is multi-disciplinary in nature, involving computational biology and bioinformatics, biochemistry, cell biology, and molecular biology. Nicole's projects include defining and studying the transcriptional complexity of the extracellular space, the transcriptional complexity of the cell cycle, microRNA functional studies, and applying next-generation sequencing technology to study transcriptional complexity in model systems.
Nicole also collaborates on a number of projects both internal and external to the lab. She is an active member of the Functional annotation of Mouse(FANTOM) consortium and the Genome Network Project (GNP), and has been instrumental in a collaboration with Applied Biosystems Inc (AB) to implement SOLiD sequencing in the Expression Genomics Laboratory.
