Young Achiever in Vocational Excellence - Winner 2012![]() Ms Prue Plummer - Age 25, PHD Cancer Researcher Nominated by Dr Alan Munn, Prue completed high school at Robina High where she was the president of the Leo Club, which is a Lions Club youth group. She studied for a science degree at Griffith University and then obtained an honours degree. Prue was chosen to do a PHD under Professor Albert Mellick on research in the cause of cancer. Her studies focused on how cancers grow and spread to other parts of the body and how to restrict the growth of blood vessels that nourish the growth of tumours. Prue has identified the DNA markers of the EPC cells in blood vessels. This discovery allows for research into methods to restrict their growth. This may be a major breakthrough. |
