- Gastroenterologist and cancer scientist, South Australian Health & Medical Research Institute
Dan Worthley, M.B.,B.S.(Hons), MPH, PhD, FRACP, AGAF. I am a gastroenterologist and cancer researcher. I started my career as a medical student and gastroenterology trainee in Adelaide. I moved to Brisbane to complete my PhD and MPH at the University of Queensland, then to Columbia University in New York for a 4 year post-doctoral fellowship in stem and cancer cell biology. When I returned to Australia I established a research program in synthetic biology and a clinical practice that would, together, reduce bowel cancer death in our community. We are dedicated to detecting, preventing and treating bowel polyps and cancer. I work at Colonoscopy Clinic (Queensland). There is a future where no Australian will die of bowel cancer.
