"I am deeply honoured to receive this recognition from BioMelbourne Network. Forging partnerships and collaborations is at the heart of what I do to advance the sector I am so passionate about, and this award is a celebration of the collective efforts from everyone involved.
The healthcare, medical research, and biotech fields are incredibly complex, and no single individual or organisation can make a real difference alone. Only when we collaborate, we combine our skills and create something greater and more impactful than the sum of our parts. This award inspires me to continue my work with even greater commitment, driving progress together for the ultimate benefit of patients here in Australia and worldwide," she says.
