About Phil

Associate Professor Phil Jobling serves in the School of Biomedical Sciences and Pharmacy, specialising in Human Physiology, within the College of Health, Medicine and Wellbeing at the University of Newcastle, Australia. He earned his PhD from the University of Queensland, Bachelor of Science (Honours) and Master of Science from the University of Melbourne, and a Graduate Certificate in the Practice of Tertiary Teaching from the University of Newcastle. His research focuses on the structure and function of nerves controlling internal organs, encompassing sensory neurons that relay information about organ states and autonomic neurons that regulate organ function. Current investigations centre on the neural control of the female reproductive tract using animal models, utilising electrophysiology to record neuronal activity and histological techniques to examine neuron morphology and neurochemistry. This research seeks to elucidate neuron types critical for pelvic organ function and the chemical messengers facilitating neuronal communication, with implications for treating disorders such as incontinence, sexual dysfunction, and chronic pelvic pain arising from autonomic and sensory nervous system dysregulation.
