Dr Andrea Harrington
Senior Research Fellow
College of Medicine and Public Health
Dr. Harrington is a laboratory based research scientist, unravelling the spinal cord and brain circuits that receive and process sensory information from internal (visceral) organs. Such information is then used to identify remodelling within these circuits in disease states of chronic visceral pain. Her technical strengths are in in vitro and in vivo anatomy mapping, molecular localisation, microscopy and neurophysiology.
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Dept. of Paediatrics, University of Melbourne 2007
Bachelor of Science (Hons) University of Melbourne 2003
As the Head of the Central Pathways Projects in the Visceral Pain Research Unit, based at the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI), she leads discovery research mapping the spinal cord and brain circuits processing visceral sensation and how these change in disease to facilitate chronic visceral pain. There are PhD opportunities available.
