Biography

Dr Sarah Russell is Group Leader of the Cancer Immunology Program at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre. 

Sarah Russell is an immunologist and cell biologist, interested in understanding how immune cell development occurs, and how polarity influences cell fate. Her major focus is on T cells: how they develop, how they respond to pathogens and cancer, and how errors in their development can lead to leukemia. To achieve this, she has a lab at Swinburne University, where she works with physicists and mathematicians on new microscopy developments and applications, and on statistical and computational tools for single cell analysis.
