Dr Michelle Hill earned her PhD at the University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia in 2000. After 3 postdoctoral positions, Dr Hill established the cancer proteomics group at the University of Queensland Diamantina Institute in 2009 with a Career Development Fellowship from the National Health and Medical Research Council. Her research group utilizes proteomics and systems analysis to investigate molecular mechanisms linking lipid raft dysfunction and cancer metastasis. Dr Hill’s group has also developed a novel high throughput glycoproteomics pipeline for cancer biomarker discovery, which they are utilizing to develop new blood tests for cancer. Dr Hill is on the organising committee of the Australiasian Proteomics Society and the Australasian Extracellular Vesicles Conference. She has received several prestigious awards, most recently the Australian Research Council Future Fellowship.
