Immediate past president of the Australian Academy of Science, Professor Suzanne Cory, will present this year’s prestigious Boyer lectures.
Each year, the ABC’s Boyer Lectures are given by prominent Australians on major social, scientific or cultural issues.
Professor Cory will deliver the four-part lecture series on The promise of science: a vision of hope.
'I am delighted to be presenting the 2014 Boyer Lectures and to have the opportunity to contribute to the national discussion about science through such an influential and historically significant platform,' Professor Cory said.
Professor Cory is one of Australia’s most distinguished molecular biologists whose research has had a major impact on the understanding of immunology and the development of cancer. Until last week's Science at the Shine Dome event in Canberra, she was also the President of the Australian Academy of Science.
