Professor
Biochemistry & Molecular Biology

Dr. Emmett's current research specializes in identification of novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers in oncology (esp. neuro-oncology). He has established a multi-disciplinary research group enabling a systems biological approach integrating geneomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, glycomics, lipidomics, metabolomics and phenotypic responses to the study of cancer focusing on the identification of novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
