Dr. Mitchell Bestry
Bio
I am a Research Associate in the Applied Bioinformatics Group, where I am currently working on various projects since commencing the role in mid-2024. I previously completed my PhD in clinical epigenetics at the Telethon Kids Institute (now The Kids Institute), while enrolled at The University of Western Australia. Prior to that, I completed a Master of Biotechnology and a Bachelor of Science majoring in Genetics at The University of Western Australia.
