Recognition, in the end, really means nothing,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Dr. Connie Eaves once said.
카지노 게임 컬렉션It카지노 게임 컬렉션s how good you feel about yourself. And the feedback you get from the people who are most important to you. It카지노 게임 컬렉션s what카지노 게임 컬렉션s important to you and whether you카지노 게임 컬렉션ve done the best job that you can to make a contribution to that community.카지노 게임 컬렉션
The contributions Dr. Eaves, BA카지노 게임 컬렉션64, MSc카지노 게임 컬렉션66, made to the community are immense. When she died in March in Vancouver, where she had worked for more than 50 years with , she had blazed a trail for women in science and technology and pioneered stem cell research techniques that became a global gold standard.
Also immense is the recognition. She was appointed as an officer of the Order of Canada, inducted into the , elected to the prestigious , elected to the , and honoured with the , reserved for a Canadian scientist showcasing scientific excellence and leadership, to name a few.
카지노 게임 컬렉션My mother was a force of nature,카지노 게임 컬렉션 her son David Eaves, Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션98, said in an interview from England, where he teaches at 카지노게임사이트 College London.
Constance Jean Halperin was born in Ottawa on May 22, 1944. Her father, Dr. Israel Halperin, was a brilliant Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s math professor, but young Connie dreamed of becoming a physician.
She was an excellent student, recalls her younger brother, Dr. Bill Halperin (Arts카지노 게임 컬렉션67), an Orrington Lunt Professor of Physics at Northwestern 카지노게임사이트.
카지노 게임 컬렉션She was intellectually competitive, of course, but not on a personal basis. Her interest in competitiveness was with herself,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Dr. Halperin says.
Connie had just graduated high school when Israel took the family to France, where he was on sabbatical. In Paris, she studied pre-medicine but, when the family returned to Canada a year later, she found medical schools were not a welcoming place for women.
Instead, she enrolled at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, studying chemistry. She completed her undergraduate and master카지노 게임 컬렉션s degrees at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s and found work in a research laboratory. It was there, hunched over a microscope, that she found her true calling, not in medicine, but in medical research.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Science is about having a dream,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Dr. Eaves said when she accepted the Canada Gairdner Wightman Award in 2019. 카지노 게임 컬렉션You cannot discover something that you know about. Science is about chasing after something that you don카지노 게임 컬렉션t know what it카지노 게임 컬렉션s going to be. That카지노 게임 컬렉션s what keeps you going forever.카지노 게임 컬렉션
She was a woman who had purpose. She generated that purpose. She said, 카지노 게임 컬렉션This is what I want to do카지노 게임 컬렉션 and she pursued it.
At Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, she met her first husband, a physicist named Phil Gregory, with whom she would have two children, Neil and Rene.
Dr. Eaves went to England where she obtained her PhD in immunology at the 카지노게임사이트 of Manchester, then returned to Canada to work in a cancer research lab at the 카지노게임사이트 of Toronto. Among 50 scientists, she was the only woman.
카지노 게임 컬렉션There was a sense that a woman shouldn카지노 게임 컬렉션t be there, that a woman couldn카지노 게임 컬렉션t do it,카지노 게임 컬렉션 she said in a 2019 interview for the . 카지노 게임 컬렉션You either look at that as a challenge and say, 카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션m going to show them,카지노 게임 컬렉션 or you카지노 게임 컬렉션re dismayed and put down.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Dr. Eaves chose to show them.
In 1973, she moved to Vancouver, where she was hired by BC Cancer Research. Her first marriage had ended and in Vancouver she worked alongside her second husband, Dr. Allen Eaves, with whom she had two more children, David and Sara. In 1981, the couple co-founded the while Connie also worked as a professor of genetics at the 카지노게임사이트 of British Columbia.
Stem cell research was her specialty, particularly in the field of bone marrow transplants, blood cancers, and treatments for breast cancer.
Dr. Eaves did not dwell on the lives her work may have saved, says David Eaves.
카지노 게임 컬렉션She was quite philosophical about it. She would say, 카지노 게임 컬렉션Any treatment will have many contributors who made it possible. It카지노 게임 컬렉션s not just me,카지노 게임 컬렉션카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션She was really motivated by the uncovering and understanding of something genuinely new. She was more interested in the abstract 카지노 게임 컬렉션 do we really understand this? 카지노 게임 컬렉션 than in whether it was leading to a treatment. Not because she didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t care, but because a better understanding of the basic science was the foundation upon which all treatments would ultimately be based. It was the most effective way she could contribute.카지노 게임 컬렉션
In the cutthroat world of research, Dr. Eaves stood out as a mentor, fostering young careers.
카지노 게임 컬렉션At the Terry Fox Lab, my mom worked hard to make it so that people weren카지노 게임 컬렉션t in competition with one another, that they were supportive of one another,카지노 게임 컬렉션 David Eaves says.
That didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t mean that Dr. Eaves wasn카지노 게임 컬렉션t rigorous 카지노 게임 컬렉션 relentless even 카지노 게임 컬렉션 in her search for answers. A tribute to Dr. Eaves in the journal Experimental Hematology described her research as 카지노 게임 컬렉션ruthlessly quantitative.카지노 게임 컬렉션
카지노 게임 컬렉션Her pioneering research methodologies, including developing a technique to separate cancerous from normal stem cells, have become gold-standard approaches used in laboratories around the world,카지노 게임 컬렉션 BC Cancer said after Dr. Eaves카지노 게임 컬렉션s death.
In his own tribute to his mother, David Eaves wrote that hundreds of students from around the world came to work with her in the lab. Many of them attended her memorial service in May at the 카지노게임사이트 of British Columbia.
카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션m all about getting young people involved,카지노 게임 컬렉션 she told the audience at the Canada Gairdner Wightman Award gala. 카지노 게임 컬렉션They will teach you what you need to know. And they will tell you what you don카지노 게임 컬렉션t want to hear.카지노 게임 컬렉션
카지노 게임 컬렉션She was a woman who had purpose,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says her brother, Dr. Halperin. 카지노 게임 컬렉션She generated that purpose. She said, 카지노 게임 컬렉션This is what I want to do카지노 게임 컬렉션 and she pursued it. She was successful. She built on that success. She convinced others to profit from that success.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Dr. Connie Eaves died March 7 from complications due to colon cancer. She was 79. She is survived by her husband, Allen, her children, Neil Gregory-Eaves, Rene Gregory-Eaves, David Eaves, and Sara Terry, and 11 grandchildren.
