1 Getting started in research Assoc. Prof. Steven Lane MBBS (Hons) PhD FRACP FRCPA Team Head: Translational Leukaemia Research Laboratory Queensland Institute of Medical Research Clinical Haematologist: Royal Brisbane and Women s Hospital Queensland Institute of Medical Research 1
2 First up, a short introduction My career path (to date) MBBS at University of Queensland ( ) Clinical training ( including 2002 in the UK) Clinical Haematologist (FRACP) and Haematopathologist (FRCPA) PhD UQ Research Fellowship Harvard Medical School ( ) Team Head, QIMR (B) Consultant haematologist, RBWH 2011-
3 Myeloid blood cancers Myeloid malignancy Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) Myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) Myelodysplastic syndromes Approximately 2000 patients diagnosed/yr Limited treatment options Supportive care (transfusions etc) Chemotherapy Bone marrow transplantation Targeted therapy (last 10 years)
4 A brief note about clinical research Audits, case series, retrospective reviews A great way to understand the process of scientific rigor, communication and eventually publication Generally low impact, few citations however may be important findings for your field Clinical research is possible in some areas Limited by competition Conflicting interests of drug companies Difficulties with recruitment The BIG changes in clinical medicine come from basic scientific reearch Imatinib in CML and other targeted therapies Vaccine for cervical cancer Your enthusiasm and self-motivation will be obvious These are key indicators to future employers/ colleges/ fellowships
5 Getting started in research Better get yourself a mentor (son), better get a REAL good one (or more) I have been very fortunate to have great mentors along the way Peter Mollee PAH Haematology Andrew Boyd RBWH/ QIMR Gary Gilliland Harvard Professor Geoff Hill Haematologist/ Bone Marrow Transplant Physician Director of Research, RBWH Cancer Care Director of Cancer Program, QIMR Berghofer NHMRC Australia Fellow Tragic NZ rugby fan Professor David Williams Director Hematology/ Oncology Children s Hospital Boston, DFCI Harvard Medical School, Boston President American Soc. Hematology All round good guy
6 I decided to go overseas to do a research fellowship Do something different Others were doing clinical fellowships What can you bring back that makes you unique? Travel somewhere new Go to the best place you can possibly imagine/ think of Do not give up Professor D. Gary Gilliland Harvard Medical School, Boston
