Dr Isabelle Lys previously worked in research at the Endocrinology and Molecular Biology lab at the Baker Medical Research Institute in Melbourne (1998) under the supervision of Assoc Prof Timothy Cole. During her PhD studies she worked for the Department of Biology and Department of Physiology, University of Melbourne as a sessional tutor and laboratory demonstrator. Dr Lys also lived and taught Biology, Biochemistry and Genetics as a residential tutor at International House, University of Melbourne from 1999-2004. After her PhD studies, she completed a postdoctoral research position at Ottawa Health and Research Institute, Canada by studying hormone interactions during breast cancer development in cells. Then she worked as a postdoctoral research fellow for AgResearch in Hamilton, New Zealand, investigating endocrinology, health, fertility and reproduction in both normal and transgenic cattle.
From 2007 to 2010, Dr Lys commenced her first lectureship in Health and Life Sciences at Massey University in Wellington, New Zealand. From 2010 to 2014, she was a Senior Academic/Lecturer in Exercise and Sport Science at Charles Darwin University, Australia, prior to commencing her academic staff role in Biomedical Sciences at the School of Sciences, Faculty of Health Sciences, Australian Catholic University since January 2015. She teaches into human Anatomy and Physiology, Pathophysiology, Genetics, Research Design and Ethics, Core Curriculum and Community Engagement. She is passionate about research into learning and teaching practices for students and staff in health and biosciences. She also has a wide range of interests in research into both the sciences, Indigenous Knowings in science and science education. She is a member of STEM Professionals in Schools with CSIRO and volunteers at schools. She is currently an active researcher completing her Masters by Research in Science Education, and is involved in leading and participating in various Community Engagement projects with schools and local communities.
