About

Marilyn Renfree is a Melbourne Laureate Professor at The University of Melbourne, Australia. Her research focuses on the fields of reproductive biology and genomics, particularly in marsupials, as evidenced by her recent publications on ovarian differentiation, genomic imprinting, and developmental processes in species such as the tammar wallaby. Her work employs advanced techniques including synchrotron X-ray fluorescence microscopy to investigate life history indicators in marsupial teeth.
