Renea Taylor
Professor Renea Taylor serves as the Associate Dean, Centres and Institutes, in the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences at Monash University. She is also the Co-Head of the Cancer Program at the Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute and co-leads the Prostate Cancer Research Group within the Department of Physiology.
Prof. Taylor’s interdisciplinary training in stem cell and prostate biology was funded through prestigious fellowships from the National Health and Medical Research Council, the U.S. Army Department of Defense, the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia, and the Victorian Cancer Agency. This training has equipped her to lead a translational research program with direct applications to urology and oncology clinical practice.
Her research focuses on identifying cellular targets in cancer to drive the development of innovative therapeutic strategies for prostate cancer. A key area of her work includes advancing cellular immunotherapies, particularly in the preclinical development of cutting-edge CAR T-cell therapies. Through these efforts, Professor Taylor aims to bridge fundamental research and clinical applications, contributing to improved outcomes for patients with treatment-resistant prostate cancer.
