Professor Ramm is Head of Department - Cell and Molecular Biology, Group Leader - Hepatic Fibrosis and Principal Research Fellow at QIMR Berghofer. He is funded by a NHMRC Senior Research Fellowship. His research is focussed on the mechanisms associated with hepatic stellate cell transdifferentiation into fibrosis-causing myofibroblasts and their interaction with liver progenitor cells driving wound healing, inflammation, fibrogenesis, liver cancer and hepatic regeneration. In addition, translation of mechanistic observations into clinical application for the differential diagnosis, monitoring progression, and predicting clinical outcome in chronic liver disease.
