Susanne von Caemmerer is an Australian plant physiologist who is a professor and plant physiologist in the Division of Plant Sciences, Research School of Biology at the Australian National University;[1] and the Deputy Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Translational Photosynthesis.[2] She has been a leader in developing and refining biochemical models of photosynthesis.[3][4]
Education
[edit]von Caemmerer received a Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics in 1976 from Australian National University, she received her PhD in plant physiology in 1981.[3][2][5]
Career and Research
[edit]
With Graham Farquhar and Joe Berry, her early work in plant physiology led to the development of a biochemical model of C3 photosynthesis.[6] The model that mathematically describes the balance of photosynthetic limitations between light-driven energy supply and carbon diffusion substrate supply has become a cornerstone of research into photosynthesis at the leaf-level and carbon fluxes at larger scales.
She currently[when?] serves on the editorial board of the journal Plant, Cell & Environment.[7]
Honours and awards
[edit]She was awarded the Charles F. Kettering Award in recognition of her excellence in the field of photosynthesis in 2014 by the American Society of Plant Biologists.[8]
She was elected a fellow of the Australian Academy of Science,[9] the German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina in 2006[10] and a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2017.[11]
In 2021, she and John Endler were jointly awarded the inaugural Suzanne Cory Medal for Biomedical Sciences.[12]
