GARY SHOOTER :: SCIENTIFIC ADVISOR
B.Sc. (Griffith Uni), B.Sc. Hons (Griffith Uni), Ph.D. (Biochemistry, Adelaide Uni)

Dr Shooter is a Research Fellow within the Tissue Bioregeneration and Integration program at QUT. He has a diverse range of interests in structural biology and the study of protein-protein interactions stemming from his PhD project within the CRC for Tissue Growth and Repair, Adelaide University.

Having worked in several biotechnology companies he has a strong background in the manufacture of recombinant and naturally-derived protein products. His technical expertise in protein chemistry covers areas including: molecular modelling, protein purification and characterisation, mass spectrometry based proteomics and the development of sustained release delivery formulations.

One of Dr Shooter’s goals is to further elucidate the structure-function relationships of vitronectin including the production and characterisation of truncated and chimeric analogues of recombinant vitronectin.
