Biography

Dr Carmel Quinn is a Senior Project Officer working in UNSW Biospecimen Services, Mark Wainwright Analytical Centre. Carmel works predominantly with the Health Precincts Biobank (formerly the Health Science Alliance (HSA) Biobank), part of UNSW Biospecimen Services since 2021. Prior to this, Carmel worked as a Project Officer for the Translational Cancer Research Network (TCRN), where her role principally involved supporting the HSA Biobank. Carmel also worked for several years as a post-doctoral scientist in cardiovascular molecular and cell biology, first in the UK then at UNSW Sydney.
