  • To Professor Suzanne Cory AC
    Citation for the Award of the Doctor of Laws (Honoris Causa) to Professor Suzanne Cory AC When Suzanne Cory graduated from the Science Faculty at the University of Melbourne molecular biology was in its infancy. In her enthusiasm for this new science she pursued a PhD in Cambridge at the Medical Research Council’s famed Laboratory of Molecular Biology. Immersed in a culture of discovery, her pioneering PhD studies determined the sequence of a transfer RNA, utilising new technology developed by Fred Sanger, one of the three Nobel Laureates in the institute. After three years’ post‐doctoral work at the University of Geneva, Suzanne Cory returned to Australia with her husband, Jerry Adams, to the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research where they helped to introduce gene‐cloning technology to Australia. Since then, her long association with the Institute, including thirteen years as Director, and with the University of Melbourne, has been instrumental in building the international reputation of both institutions and the strength of the Parkville biomedical research network. Suzanne Cory has made major contributions to advancing the science of immunology, cancer and genetics, in a lifelong dynamic research partnership with Adams. Her work is published widely and cited frequently. The positions held by the many PhD candidates and Post‐Doctoral Fellows she has supervised demonstrate her intergenerational influence in developing scientific leaders for the future. The list of accolades and awards Suzanne Cory has received in recognition of her contributions to science is long and distinguished. She was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 1986 and since has been elected to numerous sister organisations across the globe.

  • 'What's a Nice Girl Like You Doing with a Nobel Prize?' Elizabeth Blackburn, 'Australia's' First Woman Nobel Laureat
    ‘What’s a Nice Girl like you Doing with a Nobel Prize?’ Elizabeth Blackburn, ‘Australia’s’ First Woman Nobel Laureate and Women’s Scientific Leadership Jane Carey Centre for Women’s Studies and Gender Research/Monash Indigenous Centre Monash University, Clayton VIC 3800 [email protected] Abstract: In 2009 Elizabeth Blackburn (along with two of her American colleagues) won the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, confirming her position as a global scientific leader. She was immediately celebrated as Australia’s first woman Nobel laureate. However, although 2009 was a ‘bumper’ year for women Nobel laureates, with five winners in total, the media coverage soon became highly negative and discouraging. Much discussion focused not on Blackburn’s scientific work but on her gender – the difficulties it was assumed she must have faced individually as a woman scientist, and her wider leadership role in encouraging and supporting other women to overcome these obstacles. In this chapter I suggest the continuing highly negative ways the possibilities for women’s participation and leadership in science are discussed are counterproductive. Journalistic, policy and scholarly discussions of the ‘problem’ of women in science misconstrue the extent of women’s participation in the field and the nature of their experiences. In all these spheres, science continues to be understood and represented as an unhappy place for women to be. This misrepresentation, I argue, undercuts the leadership roles women scientists are seeking. Keywords: Elizabeth Blackburn, women scientists, Australian science, gender and science, Nobel Prize On 5 October 2009 molecular biologist Elizabeth Blackburn received a phone call from Geneva with the news that she, along with her American colleagues Carol Greider and Jack W.

  • Burnet Booklet.Indd
    Second and Revised Edition, 2007 Introduction Professor Suzanne Cory, Director of The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research Frank Macfarlane Burnet’s theory of clonal selection Hall Institute of Medical Research an international focus on profoundly and forever changed the way that scientists all immunological research and application. Today, immunology over the world understand the working of immunity. In remains one of Australia’s strongest sciences. One third doing so, he brought to Victoria and The Walter and Eliza of the nation’s immunologists work in Victoria and four Australians of the Year have been immunologists. By comparison with today’s overwhelmingly collaborative nature of research and authorship, the circumstances of the creation of Burnet’s paper in 1957 appear quite amazing. While today we are accustomed to more than a dozen researchers acknowledged as contributors to a paper and papers likely to have been drafted many times over many months, by contrast Burnet’s paper was precisely that – Burnet’s alone; and he wrote the paper over the course of a weekend at home. Equally astonishing is the fact that such a revolutionary theory, which caused a seismic shift in thinking, was encapsulated in only a few pages of text. Part of the measure of the greatness of Burnet’s achievement is that today’s immunologists tell us that Burnet’s theories so thoroughly infuse their thinking that it seems impossible to imagine that the world of immunology could ever have been any other way. This universal infusion of Burnet’s theories marks him as one of Australia’s greatest ever scientists.
