Research Interests
Dr Suzanne Miller is a Senior Research Officer in the Department of Physiology, and holds a Research Fellowship from the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists. After completion of her PhD at Monash University, Dr Miller gained a Postdoctoral Fellowship at University College London, where she worked with the highly regarded Fetal and Neonatal Research Group to examine the effects of acute period of stress, including reduced oxygen availability, infection and malnutrition, on the development of the fetal brain. Dr Miller returned from the UK in 2001, and since then has been working with the Departments of Physiology and Obstetrics and Gynaecology on the maintenance of fetal wellbeing, with particular focus on fetal intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR); endocrine regulation of adaptation to IUGR, clinical markers to predict IUGR pregnancies, cellular and biochemical changes in the brain of IUGR fetuses and possible neuroprotective therapies.
Teaching Interests
Dr Miller presents lectures to 3rd Year Science / Biomedical Science students in the Developmental Physiology course and neurodevelopment lectures to the Graduate Diploma in Reproductive Science students. Dr Miller also supervises research students including Honours, Masters and PhD students undertaking projects in the field of Fetal and Neonatal Research.
