Researcher biography
Dr Ellis completed his MD/PhD in 2019 at the University of Queensland. His thesis investigated kidney function following nephrectomy for the management of kidney cancer. His current work includes both clinical and pre-clinical research across a number of fields related to kidney health and disease, including work on kidney cancer, chronic kidney disease, and transplantation. He is currently based at the Translational Research Institute and Princess Alexandra Hospital.
