• W4309258279 abstract "Professor William (Bill) Doe was one of the most outstanding academic gastroenterologists produced by Australia and a major leader in the development of regional cooperation in Asia-Pacific Gastroenterology. He was a very highly regarded clinician, researcher, and educator—but perhaps his biggest contribution was the visionary leadership he brought to our specialty at an international level. Bill Doe graduated in Medicine from the University of Sydney in 1965. After completion of residency years, he moved to the United Kingdom where he was awarded an MRC Fellowship (1970–1971) followed by a Lilly International Fellowship (1974–1975) and an NIH Fellowship (1975–1976) held at the Scripps Research Institute in San Diego, California. In the United Kingdom, he worked with Christopher Booth and developed a strong interest in intestinal immunology studies, not just at a basic science level but for the insights provided into gut inflammatory disorders; an early paper in Gut on five cases of alpha-chain disease is a citation classic [Gut 1972;13:947–957]. Bill returned to Sydney in 1977 to take up a senior lectureship at the Royal North Shore Hospital. He was rapidly promoted, and in 1982, was recruited to be a Professor and the Head of the Division of Medicine and Clinical Science at the John Curtin School of Medical Research, Australian National University (ANU)—then one of Australia's leading research institutes from which three Nobel Laureates have come. There, he developed a very strong research team in both basic and clinically relevant studies pertinent to inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal carcinoma. As he did all his professional life, Bill bridged the gap between discovery-based basic research and clinical medicine. Thus, he was also a Visiting Gastroenterologist at the Woden Valley, then Canberra Hospital, and from 1994 to 1998 was made a Professor of Medicine at the Canberra Clinical School of the University of Sydney. He was instrumental in establishing the ANU Medical School. A substantive contribution during the “Canberra decade” of Doe's career was the number of outstanding young gastroenterologists he trained or influenced—several completing PhDs or post-doctoral fellowships under his guidance. These individuals have gone on to make their own outstanding contributions to Gastroenterology in the Asia-Pacific region. Professor Doe was elected to the Council of the Gastroenterological Society of Australia (GESA), and held the role of its President from 1989 to 1991. Immediately before this, he was a principal proponent of Australia's seeking to convene a World Congress of Gastroenterology (WCOG). Once this application was successful, he worked tirelessly with others (notably, Gabriel Nagy, Danny Stiel, and Kerry Goulston) to make it an outstanding success. His imaginative contributions as Chair of the Scientific Program Committee greatly lifted the profile, scientific and clinical credibility of WCOG as a key international meeting. The 1990 Sydney World Congress in Gastroenterology was attended by nearly 10 000 registrants and lifted the standing of Gastroenterology in the Asia-Pacific region. Further, it was a seminal opportunity for Asia-Pacific colleagues to meet and develop the collaborations and friendships that have continued in the 30 years since. Although busy in his leadership roles, Bill Doe authored more than 150 research publications in international scientific journals, particularly in the fields of gut mucosal immunology, inflammatory bowel disease, and colon cancer. For his leadership and contributions to research, Doe was awarded the GESA Distinguished Research Prize in 1997. Bill Doe made another major contribution to Asia-Pacific Gastroenterology as a Senior Editor of the Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology from 1993 to 2001, and a Trustee of the JGH Foundation from 2001. He played a substantive role in developing the mission of the Journal. Bill saw JGH as a catalyst for regional cooperation and the development of optimal clinical practice and research in the specialties of Gastroenterology and Hepatology. A particular initiative that arose from his strategic thinking was the move to convene JGH Editors meetings at the same time and place as the annual APDW; from the inaugural meeting in Sydney 2001, APDW has become the peak scientific meeting for Gastroenterology in the Asia-Pacific region. This alignment of JGH and APDW ensured the availability of Editors and Trustees to play educational roles in APDW at no cost to the organizers. As well, he influenced the growing resources of the JGH to be used to sponsor named annual lectures and travel awards, thereby augmenting the quality of the APDW meeting and participation by younger researchers. Bill left Australia to take up an appointment as Dean of Medicine, Dentistry and Health and Head of the University of Birmingham Medical School from 1998 to 2007; there, he was a member of the University Council and Senate and in 1999 was elected as a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences, United Kingdom. He later became Provost of the Aga Khan University. Bill Doe was the master of the research presentation and even in the days before PowerPoint, seemed to make them effortless. His writing skills were also exceptional. He was a most imaginative and inspiring leader, continually challenging those around him to take the steps required for major advances. Further, he led by example—maintaining exemplary standards of academic, clinical, and research excellence. In spite of the many competing interests in his professional life, he always fostered good relations with peers in many countries and appropriate and ethical interactions with pharma. He was a great raconteur and had a dry, often “wicked” sense of humor. Professor Doe passed away after a long illness on 23 August 2022, surrounded by his loving family. We remember him fondly and with admiration. Our thoughts go to his wife, Dallas, his children, Jamie, Thomas, and Alexandra, and his newly arrived granddaughter, Cora." @default.
