Rate My Professor Rohan Lewis

Lewis has delivered numerous invited lectures, including keynotes on placental adaptations and outcomes, and talks on 3D imaging, computational modeling, and multimodal correlative imaging for placental function. He serves as Council Member for the International Federation of Placenta Associations and has acted as External Examiner. His laboratory has received funding from BBSRC, Leverhulme Trust, MRC, and Wellbeing of Women for projects on the placental exposome, convergent evolution of placental villi, nanoscale imaging, amino acid and xenobiotic transport, and spatial biology platforms. Key publications include 'From mice to rhinos: whole-organ quantification of 3D mammalian placental structure using correlative multiscale imaging' (2026, Placenta), 'Placental crises: disruptive selection and maternal under-investment as the foundations of mammalian placental evolution and dysfunction' (2026, Biological Reviews), 'Gastroschisis associated changes in the placental transcriptome' (2024, Placenta), 'Ultrastructural cilia defects in multi-ciliated uterine glandular epithelial cells from women with reproductive failure' (2024, Reproduction), and 'Placental evolution from a three-dimensional and multiscale structural perspective' (2024, Evolution). He also received the Excellence in Reviewing award from Placenta journal in 2014. Lewis teaches physiology to medical students across BM4, BM5, and BM6 courses and contributes to placental biology modules.
