Australian neuroscientist wins British science prize
Professor Mandyam Srinivasan, the Queensland Brain Institute's head of visual neuroscience, has received the 2008 Rank Prize for Optoelectronics.
The Rank Prize Funds is a British-based organisation established in the 1970s by Lord and Lady Rank, who owned Rank Picture Films and Rank Xerox.
Srinivasan moved to The University of Queensland in January 2007 to take up a professorship in visual neuroscience at the Queensland Brain Institute (QBI). Before coming to UQ, Professor Srinivasan headed a 20-strong team at the Australian National University.
