> Abstract:
>
> Peter Leedman is Head of the Laboratory for Cancer Medicine at the  
> Western Australian Institute for Medical Research (WAIMR) and  
> Deputy Director. After graduating in Medicine at the UWA (1981), he  
> moved to Melbourne for training in Endocrinology and a PhD at the  
> WEHI before pursuing postdoctoral studies in gene regulation at  
> Harvard Medical School. In 1994 he returned to Australia to take up  
> a clinical academic position in the School of Medicine and  
> Pharmacology at UWA based at Royal Perth Hospital. His laboratory  
> has focused on the mechanisms regulating expression of key  
> therapeutic targets in hormone-dependent cancer (breast and  
> prostate), including the estrogen and androgen receptors and  
> epidermal growth factor receptor. His team's recent work has  
> uncovered several new members of a complex network of nuclear  
> receptor hormone coregulators and focused on the functional role of  
> microRNAs in cancer.
