Associate Professor Rick Sturm leads the Naevus and melanoma genetics group.
Researcher biography
Our work on human pigmentation genetics has allowed understanding of normal variation in this physical trait and the associated genotypic risk for skin cancer. The genes that determine an individual's skin phototype and the cellular mechanisms that result in the tanning response of melanocytes after UV-exposure of the skin are actively being investigated.
Assoc. Prof Rick Sturm is group leader in the Dermatology Research Centre within the Frazer Institue.
