I'm a big fan of Ian Frazer for his breakthrough work in vaccination, and also from that obligatory patriotism that comes from his hailing from my home state in Australia (he's a former Queenslander of the Year).

I'm surprised I've only just noticed the delicious wordplay, that the man who did so much for HPV and now Herpes originally hails from down under.

Big shout out goes to his (former) partner as well (Jian Zhou) who was just as much as a boss. But yes, to put it quite simply, he's a boss (and so is his small team).
