Jenny Graves

Jenny Graves is an evolutionary geneticist whose research exploits the genetic diversity of Australia's unique mammals as a source of genetic variation to study the organisation, function and evolution of mammalian genomes. This has lead to new theories of the origin and evolution of human sex chromosomes and sex determining genes. Jenny is Distinguished Professor and Vice Chancellor's Fellow at La Trobe University, Professor Emeritus at ANU and Thinker-in-Residence at the University of Canberra. She is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science, and served on the Executive for eight years, first as Foreign Secretary, then as Secretary for Education and Public Affairs. She was recently elected a Foreign Associate of the US National Academy of Science. Jenny is an international L'Oreal-UNESCO Laureate (2006) and was made an Officer in the Order of Australia in 2009. She won the Prime Minister's Prize for Science in 2017.
