A renowned UK scientist was today announced as a Corresponding Member of the Australian Academy of Science.
Professor Sir Philip Cohen FAA FRS is an internationally recognised biological scientist who works in the area of signal transduction – the complex biochemical processes by which cells receive and interpret stimuli from their environment.
He joins a small group of 29 Corresponding Members – all of whom are leading international researchers and science advocates who have strong links with Australia.
Sir Phillip's links with Australia go back to 1980, when he held a series of lecture tours and workshops in Australian universities and for the public. These led to many current prominent Australian researchers undertaking their early postdoctoral training in Professor Cohen’s laboratory.
