Agrisera is sponsoring this year's Jan Anderson Award, granted by the Australian Society of Plant Scientists. Joan (Jan) Mary Anderson was an adjunct professor at the Australian National University. She received an honorary doctorate at Umeå University (Sweden) in 1998. She was an internationally acclaimed plant biologist, renowned for her discoveries on the organization of the intricate membrane structures that carry out solar energy conversion in cells of green plants. Her work was the first to show that the photosynthetic mechanisms consists of two fundamental components; Photosystem I and Photosystem II. Her research career spanned over 55 years, mostly at the Division of Plant Industry CSIRO Canberra (1961-97), and later at the Research School of Biological Sciences at the Australian National University. Jan was a passionate and creative female scientist who was well ahead of her time. She was an inspiration to young researchers, for whom her enthusiasm and curiosity were infectious. Professor Jan Anderson died on 28 August 2015 after a short illness. In recognition of her life and achievements in photosynthesis research as a pioneering female scientist, this award will acknowledge talented female plant science researchers. | ![]() Full description of the award |
