Professor Voysey was honoured by awards organizers the Australia Day Foundation for her successful career as a researcher in vaccinology and work as the lead methodologist for the Oxford vaccine trials.
She said: ‘I’m extremely honoured to receive this award. Medical research is very much a team sport, and the achievements of the last two years were the result of the hard work of many hundreds of people.
‘It was an honour and a privilege to work on the development of this vaccine and to know that so many lives have been saved as a result.’
