Australian of the Year.....

Post by StewL » Thu Jan 26, 2006 3:07 am

The Australian of the year for this year is:

Prof. Dr. Ian Frazer

He is a Scottish born medical researcher.
He recieved this honour for his work in developing a vaccine for cervical cancer. I believe caused by the Human Papilloma virus?

The Scots turn, it was Dr Fiona Woods an English born burns specialist who was Australian of the Year last year. :D
