Sonya Marshall-Gradisnik
Sonya Marshall-Gradisnik is a professor of immunology and the director of the National Centre for Neuroimmunology and Emerging Diseases at Griffith University.[1][2] She is known for her immunological, genetic and calcium channel dysfunction work on myalgic encephelomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).[2]
Her work on calcium channel dysfunction might help explain findings of natural killer cell dysfunction in ME/CFS.[3] She co-authored the International Consensus Criteria for ME/CFS.[4] and created the largest Australian biobank for ME/CFS research.[5] She has also done research on Gulf War Illness, including on calcium channel dysfunction.[6] Her work has further focussed on the overlap between ME/CFS and Long COVID, again focused on calcium ion channel dysfunction.[7][8]
Marshall-Gradisnik did her Bachelor at Griffith University, and her PhD at Southern Cross University in Australia.[5] Before her professorship at Grittith University, she was associate professor at Bond University.[9]
