I am pleased to announce that Dr Christine De Nardo has been appointed as SCS School Manager, effective 5 September 2022. Christine brings with her more than 10 years of expertise in research and operations management at medical research institutions in Australia and Germany.
Christine obtained a PhD from the Department of Medicine at the University of Melbourne in 2009. Since then she has built a strong foundation in operations management, alliance management, the coordination and management of collaborative academic and commercially-driven research programs, multinational competitive funding applications, technology transfer agreements and research contracts with major industry partners.
She began as Scientific Coordinator of the Molecular Genetics of Cancer Division at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute (WEHI), before taking on Scientific Coordinator and General Manager roles at the University of Bonn in Germany. During this period, she played a key role in the establishment of the ImmunoSensation Cluster of Excellence, securing EUR 28 million from the German Research Foundation. Concurrent with this, Christine managed the PR and Communications strategy for the Life and Medical Sciences Institute in Bonn, Germany. Since returning to Australia, Christine has acted as Scientific Coordinator of the Chemical Biology Division at WEHI, Scientific Coordinator within the Biomedicine Discovery Institute at Monash University, and more recently as General Manager for immuno-oncology biotechnology company, oNKo-innate Pty Ltd.
