• W4255567987 abstract "Pharmacologist and advocate for women in science. She was born on April 21, 1925, in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, and died in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, of chronic lung disease on Aug 29, 2006, aged 81 years. Diana Temple, a respiratory pharmacologist from Sydney University, Sydney, Australia, was a persuasive advocate for the role of women in science. “She made us feel that we could have it all”, remembers Judith Black, Temple's former student, now professor of pharmacology at Sydney University. “She was a very good role model because not only was she such an active academic and researcher, but she also had a family and kids.” Graham Johnston, also a professor of pharmacology at Sydney University and a friend of Temple's for 50 years, remembers how “She had this quiet resolve to make sure women got a fair deal—in fact to make sure that everyone got a fair deal.” Diana Marmion was born in a gold-mining town on the edge of Australia's vast Nullarbor Plain, and grew up with little awareness of the possibility that girls and women might experience discrimination in work or education. It was an attitude that took her, at the age of 17 years, to a job as a laboratory assistant at the Great Boulder mine during World War II, and then to a Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Western Australia in Perth. 2 years after graduating, Temple left the WesternAustralian outback she loved for a job teaching chemistry at Sydney University. Then, looking for new experiences, she travelled to the UK and a job at the Harwell Research Institute, Harwell, where she met and married fellow scientist Richard Temple. After 6 years, the couple returned to Sydney, where she received a grant to study for a PhD. Her main research interest was respiratory pharmacology. During her career she published more than 100 papers and supervised 41 research students. To this day, the pharmacology of respiration is a strength of the faculty. Temple was head of the pharmacology department from 1976 to 1979, at a time when its future was in question. In 1990, she retired as associate professor, and was made an honorary associate of the department of pharmacology, a life member of the faculty of medicine in 1995, and an honorary fellow of the University in 2000. Alongside her academic pursuits, Temple also served on the council of the Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science and helped administer Australia's national Eureka Prizes for Science. She also served on the New South Wales Privacy Commission. During the middle of the 1970s, Temple was part of a group of women who studied the role and achievements of female academics. In the book that resulted from this work, entitled Why So Few, she wrote a chapter devoted to the place of women in science and medicine. This work prompted her to go on to play a key role in the establishment of Australia's Women in Science Enquiry Network (WISENET), which aims to increase women's participation in the sciences. In the years that followed she gave many lectures and informal talks and published several articles on women in science. Temple was a powerhouse for WISENET in New South Wales until very recently. Throughout her working life, Temple balanced the demands of career, family life, and outside interests. It was all done with a minimum of fuss, says Johnston. “She didn't muck around, she just did it.” She was generous, encouraging, and supportive of the many women and men she mentored during her 28 years at the university. “She helped mere males as well”, Johnston said. “She was a great mentor to me, too.” Yet Temple's intelligence and forthrightness could on occasion be intimidating for some. “She had this air of competence about her”, recalls Johnston. “I think some people were a little bit scared of her.” Temple, an avid bush walker, had a long history of serious asthma that was compounded toward the end of her life by bronchiectasis. Ultimately, her family was the most important thing in her life. “When she had her first grandchild, she said to me ‘You wait, there's nothing like it’,” said Black. “And she was right.” Diana Temple was appointed a member of the Order of Australia in 1999. She is survived by her husband, Richard, her daughter, Helen, her son, Jonathan, and two grandchildren." @default.
