Abstract
Allan Cripps was internationally recognized in the field of mucosal immunology, in particular the relationship between respiratory diseases and mucosal immunization strategies. Allan's career spanned scientific and applied research, commercialization, health education, and evolved into leadership roles in public-health and academic administration. Allan published over 400 papers and mentored over 40 research higher degree candidates. Allan was renowned for his mentorship, that did not end with the awarding of a PhD or Master's degree, but continued across a lifetime of professional engagement. Allan's key contributions to immunology included characterizing the ontogeny of the human mucosal immune system, understanding the impact of respiratory infections and otitis media in children, developing diagnostic technologies and mucosal vaccine strategies, and identifying the roles of the common mucosal immune system in human health. In this biography for the 100th anniversary of the Journal, we follow his journey of discovery and contributions to immunological research.
Allan Cripps在粘膜免疫学领域，特别是呼吸道疾病与粘膜免疫策略之间的关系方面获得了国际认可。艾伦的职业生涯横跨科学和应用研究、商业化、健康教育，并发展成为公共卫生和学术管理领域的领导角色。艾伦发表了400多篇论文，指导了40多名研究生。艾伦以导师制而闻名，导师制并没有以博士或硕士学位的授予而结束，而是持续了他一生的职业生涯。Allan在免疫学方面的主要贡献包括表征人类粘膜免疫系统的个体发育，了解儿童呼吸道感染和中耳炎的影响，开发诊断技术和粘膜疫苗策略，以及确定常见粘膜免疫系统在人类健康中的作用。在这本纪念《华尔街日报》100周年的传记中，我们关注他的发现之旅和对免疫学研究的贡献。
期刊介绍：
The Australasian Society for Immunology Incorporated (ASI) was created by the amalgamation in 1991 of the Australian Society for Immunology, formed in 1970, and the New Zealand Society for Immunology, formed in 1975. The aim of the Society is to encourage and support the discipline of immunology in the Australasian region. It is a broadly based Society, embracing clinical and experimental, cellular and molecular immunology in humans and animals. The Society provides a network for the exchange of information and for collaboration within Australia, New Zealand and overseas. ASI members have been prominent in advancing biological and medical research worldwide. We seek to encourage the study of immunology in Australia and New Zealand and are active in introducing young scientists to the discipline.
