Victor Anggono 2019 Hunter Cell Biology Meeting

Victor Anggono

Victor Anggono received his PhD in 2007 from the University of Sydney and undertook his postdoctoral training at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, USA. In 2012, Dr Anggono returned to Australia as an NHMRC CJ Martin Research Fellow and joined the Clem Jones Centre for Ageing Dementia Research within the Queensland Brain Institute, The University of Queensland. He is currently an Associate Professor and an ARC Future Fellow who leads the Synaptic Neurobiology Laboratory. His research aims to understand the molecular mechanisms of synaptic vesicle and glutamate receptor trafficking in neurons, processes that are essential for synaptic transmission, plasticity, learning and memory, and how their dysregulations impact the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases and neuropsychiatric disorders. Dr Anggono has published in journals such as Nature Neuroscience, Neuron, The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA, Journal of Neuroscience and Cell Reports, and has attracted more than 3500 citations. For his works, Dr Anggono was awarded the Boomerang Award (Australian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2011) and the Young Scientist Award (Federation of Asian and Oceanian Biochemists and Molecular Biologists, 2015).
