Anthony J Gill is an Australian pathologist, professor of surgical pathology at the University of Sydney and the chairman of the Australian Pancreatic Genome Initiative.[1][2] Most of his research is focused on translating the improved understanding of cancer gained at the basic science level into clinically useful diagnostic tests which can be applied in the routine surgical pathology laboratory.[3]
Gill is best known for his description of the class of malignancies now known as succinate dehydrogenase deficient (SDH deficient) - including SDH deficient Renal Carcinoma and SDH deficient Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour (GIST).[4][5] He founded and leads the Cancer Diagnosis and Pathology Research Group[6] at the University of Sydney and Kolling Institute of Medical Research.[7] In 2017 he was presented with the Ramzi Cotran young investigator award by the United States and Canadian Academy of Pathology in recognition of his research.[8]
