Elizabeth Joy New (born 1984) is an Australian chemist and Associate Professor at the University of Sydney. She won the 2018 Australian Museum 3M Eureka Prize.

Early life and education

New was born in Sydney in 1984. She earned a bachelors degree in chemistry at the University of Sydney in 2005, where she completed her masters degree in 2006.[1] During her graduate studies she worked on fluorescent tags to monitor the cellular uptake and metabolism of anti-tumor complexes.[2] New completed her doctoral studies at Durham University working with David Parker, graduating in 2010.[3][1][4][5][6] Her work looked at the cellular behaviour of lanthanide complexes.[7]

Research and career

She was appointed a Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 Research Fellow at the University of California, Berkeley in 2010.[1] She worked with Christopher Chang on fluorescent sensors for copper.[8] She was made an Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Research Fellow in 2012, working on molecular imaging.[1] New's group developed reversible fluorescent sensors for cellular redox environments.[9] She provided the first examples of reversible ratiometric cytoplasmic sensing and mitochondrial sensing.[10][11] They develop cobalt complexes for contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging.[8][12] The complexes can be used to monitor oxidative stress.[1]

New was made a lecturer in 2015 and a senior lecturer in 2016.[1] In 2017 she received the ChemComm Emerging Investigator.[8] She was appointed Associate Professor in 2018.[1]
