**About QIMR Berghofer**:
QIMR Berghofer is a world-leading translational medical research institute focused on improving health by developing new diagnostics, better treatments and prevention strategies, specifically in the areas of Cancer, Infection and Inflammation, Brain and Mental Health, and Population Health.

**About The Transplantation Immunology Laboratory**:
Our research focuses on improving our understanding of the complications which often occur after stem cell transplantation, the gold-standard treatment for high-risk blood cancers. These complications are a major barrier to the success of this immunotherapy and include graft-versus-host disease, infection, prolonged immune cell dysfunction and relapse. We develop unique preclinical models and employ clinical samples together with cutting-edge technologies to unravel complex mechanisms to aid the discovery of new therapeutic targets or biomarkers of disease. The overarching aim of our research is to translate basic research findings into clinical practice with our vision to make this lifesaving, blood cancer treatment, safer and more effective. With strong links to the Bone Marrow Transplantation Unit at the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital, the opportunity for rapid clinical translation is highly feasible.
