Halfway through my placement with the Bioinformatics team at Fraunhofer IZI already! 🔬🧬 Learning so much about transcriptomics for CAR T cell therapy development, and the team has been incredibly welcoming. 🇩🇪 Few more updates over on LinkedIn! ➡️ linkedin.com/posts/khalia-p…



Had such a great time at #PathologyUpdate2025 this weekend thanks to a grant from The Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia! Explored careers in path and adjacent specialties, learnt a lot about the non-coding genome and advanced diagnostics, and met some wonderful new people! 🧬 #pathology #genomics



A new regulatory metabolic pathway for the pro-angiogenic and wound healing benefits of reconstituted HDL in diabetes @ChrisBursil Khalia Primer, PhD Joanne Tan Emma Solly Victoria Nankivell ahajrnls.org/3DY5hFm



So excited that this work from my PhD at SAHMRI is contributing to steps towards new therapies for diabetic wound healing. Can't wait to see where my beloved PDK4 project goes next ❤️ ChrisBursill Joanne Tan

🤩 If you haven't already, check out this study where Dr. Primer and researchers at Uni of Adelaide explore the role of the PDK4/PDC axis in angiogenesis, the effect of diabetes on its regulation in response to ischemia, and the proangiogenic properties of rHDL! 👏Congratulations
