"One of Australia's most renowned scientists, Frank Fenner, has died aged 95.
Professor Fenner is best known for his work in eradicating smallpox and the control of Australia's rabbit plague.
He and fellow researchers famously injected themselves with the myxomatosis virus to show it would not harm humans while devastating rabbit populations."
This guy is one of my heroes. I lived at Fenner Hall for 5 years, and I find this humble ultra-achiever nothing short of inspirational. The Emeritus Professor is dead, long live is work and his memory.
