Our research consists of both clinical and laboratory research groups studying skin and skin cancer, both melanoma and keratinocyte cancers, as well as development and validation of novel technology platforms for diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer. 

The Dermatology Research Centre was established in 2007 as a joint initiative of The University of Queensland and the Queensland Skin and Cancer Foundation to represent Queensland's first research unit led by specialist dermatologists from within the Frazer Institute.

UQ skin and skin cancer researchers together with QIMR Berghofer have also formed the Australian Skin & Skin Cancer (ASSC) Research Centre which brings together 40 groups of researchers around these common themes.
