Professor Ilan Davis[1] is a professor of Cell Biology and Wellcome Investigator at the Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford. Previously (1996-2007) he was a Professor and Wellcome Trust Senior Fellow (2002-2007) at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Cell Biology, University of Edinburgh. In 2011, he was elected as an EMBO fellow.

Education

Davis studied Natural Sciences (Genetics) at King’s College, Cambridge, earning a BA in 1986. He then went on to complete a DPhil in Developmental Biology in 1990 under the supervision of David Ish-Horowicz at the Department of Zoology at University of Oxford. Davis completed postdoctoral research from 1992 to 1995 at the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, UCSF, in Patrick H. O'Farrell’s laboratory, with a Nato SERC postdoctoral fellowship followed by a Boyer postdoctoral Fellowship.

Research

His work focuses on the mechanism of mRNA transport [2] and localised translation [3] in the Drosophila nervous system.

Davis previously held, as the principal applicant, a Wellcome Career Development Fellowship, Lister Senior Fellowship (2000-2002), three Wellcome Trust Senior Research Fellowships (2002-2017), two Wellcome Trust Strategic Awards (2010-2021), MRC grant for Nanoscopy Oxford (2015-2020) and currently a Wellcome Investigator Award (2017-2023).
