STEM CELLS USED FOR AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION
Dr Jenna Hall @jennatheup
Senior Research Associate
University of Melbourne @UniMelb , Victoria, Australia

RESEARCHER PROFILE
Filmed in Melbourne, Australia | January 2025

Dr. Jenna Hall is a passionate and accomplished biologist with expertise in induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) culture, disease modelling, and high-throughput automated systems. She recently earned her PhD from the University of Melbourne, where her research focused on using iPSC-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells to study age-related macular degeneration. Dr Hall’s technical skillset spans manual and automated cell reprogramming and differentiation, quantitative microscopy-based phenotyping, and large scale -omics analysis.

Dr Hall was awarded a highly competitive and sought after Australian Research Council @arc_gov_au Centre for Personalised Therapeutics and Technologies (ARC CPTT) @ARC_CPTT scholarship which, in addition to funding her PhD, included an industry internship with a leading life sciences consultancy firm. Her internship with Biointelect @BiointelectInfo allowed her to contribute to strategic projects addressing key challenges in Australia’s biotechnology ecosystem. Her white papers on the country’s vaccine and drug value chain, as well as anti-obesity medication, demonstrated her ability to combine scientific knowledge with commercial insights to influence policy and improve pandemic preparedness.

Dr Hall has over four years of industry experience, including her time at the New York Stem Cell Foundation @nyscf , where she collaborated with engineers and data scientists to develop scalable workflows for cell reprogramming, downstream differentiation, and automated maintenance. For her next career step, Dr Hall is hoping to secure a role in a fertility research lab.

Each month an #egg is ovulated from the #ovary, starting the journey of reproduction. But how does ovulation occur?🥚

Our latest work in @NatureCellBio led by @LastChrisThomas and @Tabea_Marx, describes the control of #ovulation using live imaging.

🎵Guess what next week's episode is about 🎵

@MaintenancePod @yrfatfriend
Plz do an episode on how heinous this is. Can’t we just love our children and their bodies? Let’s not wire them for lifelong disordered eating.

I absolutely hate it when I get caught off guard by a controversy in a research field.

[Tina Termini @CterminiPhD]

I am begging (white) men in positions of power to PLEASE request/demand gender equality of the speaker population before you agree to speak at seminars, symposiums, and panels. I just want to lead my lab & work on my grant, but rn I feel so defeated by the fight for inclusion💔😢

It’s so cringe to not take your craft seriously

We're building a growing list of all the amazing labs working on female reproductive health.

BUT we know there are some hidden gems. Can you help us find them? 💎👩‍🔬

Confused by all the "what is epigenetics" discourse?

Well I have just the thing for you -- presenting the Epigenetics Alignment Chart!

nathan fielder pitching the rehearsal:

[ex @butdoyouagree]

Nathan breaking character and suggesting Angela make a list of things that are satanic is my favorite moment of TV all year #TheRehearsal

[nazar emoji⚔️👁️ @noumenized]

The Rehearsal episode 1: haha yeah it would be nice to get to practice hard conversations

The Rehearsal episode 6: to know another forces you to contend with knowing yourself. to see yourself reflected in another is pain. the consequences of what we do can never be reversed.

[Massey D. Luffy @massefras]

The season finale of the rehearsal just fully convinced me that child actors should be illegal and that Nathan Fielder deserves both jail time and an Emmy
