  • The Pioneers of Australian Military Malariology: Some Biographical Profiles (Part 1)
    History The Pioneers of Australian military malariology: Some biographical profiles (Part 1) Ian Howie-Willis Abstract Australian military malariology has a long but discontinuous history extending back to the Boer War and possibly earlier. Its origins could possibly have been in the Sudan campaign (1885) and more certainly in the second Boer War (1899–1902) in the years before the establishment of the Australian Army. The discipline has continued, increasingly purposefully during the past half-century, to the present. The continuing struggle of the Australian Defence Force against malaria is now led by the Australian Army Malaria Institute (AAMI), the forerunner of which, the 1st Malaria Research Laboratory (1MRL), was founded in June 1966. The Army’s anti-malaria effort has typically been led by officers of the Royal Australian Army Medical Corps; however, particular distinguished civilian malariologists have also influenced the directions taken by Australian military malariology. This article is the first in a proposed series that will trace the careers of about 20 Australian malariologists who have made significant, pioneering contributions to the development of their discipline. As the AAMI will be able to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the formal establishment of the 1MRL on 14 June 2016, such a series is timely. Later articles in the series will demonstrate how the AAMI has grown from humble, even inauspicious origins as the 1MRL to become a leading malariological research agency. Introduction One way of conceptualising the development of Australian malariology is to view it through a Malariology was a late developing discipline in ‘biographical prism’, that is to trace the growth of the Australia.

Ainslie 1/2020 (photo: Anne Claoue-Long) ACT/Monaro/Riverina Branch WATCH • Berry township and landscape setting, Shoalhaven – historic town Berry was part of the 1822 Coolangatta Estate formed by Alexander Berry and partner, Edward Wollstonecraft. Its 40,000- acre holding was prime dairy land, which much of the landscape remains. However rising tourist trade, day and weekend visitors/owners from Sydney, highway bypass upgrades and a Council that seems to under-value its real ‘asset’ – this lush farming landscape, as sharp contrast to its town boundaries, are eroding its integrity. There is a risk of precedent in approvals, leading to piecemeal strip development south to Bomaderry and ‘sprawl’ as rural blocks are bought, and subdivisions not-otherwise-permitted in zonings are approved, somehow. Similar pressures beset Milton and Kangaroo Valley townships in their respective landscape settings. The National Trust of Australia (NSW) have classified the Berry District Landscape Conservation Area for its heritage values, but it lacks legal protection, serious planning and heritage leadership, vigilance and active management. English ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ classification is one option – strict zoning as ‘rural’ with non-variable minimum lot size, strict urban boundaries; • Australian War Memorial $498m expansion – near-doubling its floor space, with building bulk intruding into the (above) vista from Mt.
