Abstract
David Cooper was an internationally renowned immunologist and HIV clinician who spearheaded Australia’s world-leading HIV response. Known for advocacy and community engagement, he made several world-first discoveries on HIV pathogenesis and treatment. He was involved in the development of every HIV drug used in Australia and drove the introduction of antiretroviral pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in NSW. He established, then led, the Kirby Institute for thirty-two years, remaining at the forefront of communicable disease research in Australia and internationally.
期刊介绍:
Historical Records of Australian Science is a bi-annual journal that publishes two kinds of unsolicited manuscripts relating to the history of science, pure and applied, in Australia, New Zealand and the southwest Pacific.
Historical Articles–original scholarly pieces of peer-reviewed research
Historical Documents–either hitherto unpublished or obscurely published primary sources, along with a peer-reviewed scholarly introduction.
The first issue of the journal (under the title Records of the Australian Academy of Science), appeared in 1966, and the current name was adopted in 1980.
