ABSTRACT Elizabeth Hinde received a Bachelor of Science majoring in physics and chemistry from the Australian National University in Canberra, followed by a Master of Arts in painting conservation and a PhD in fluorescence spectroscopy at the University of Melbourne. She then moved to the University of California at Irvine, USA, to work as a postdoctoral fellow with Enrico Gratton on quantitative imaging of protein diffusion within the nucleus. In 2013, Elizabeth returned to Australia and joined the research group of Katharina Gaus at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, with a Vice-Chancellor Fellowship and subsequently established her own research group at UNSW with a Cancer Institute NSW Early Career Fellowship. In 2017, Elizabeth moved to the University of Melbourne as an NHMRC Career Development Fellow within the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Bio21 Institute, and has recently moved to the School of Physics as the Jacob Haimson Beverley Mecklenburg Lecturer. Her research focuses on fluorescence microscopy methods to quantify live-cell nuclear organisation and the role chromatin dynamics play in maintaining genome function.
