Academic career

edit

After being raised in Auckland and attending Epsom Girls Grammar School[2] and as an undergraduate at the University of Auckland, Cornish completed a 1982 MSc titled 'The Role of nephritogenic antigen in the development and maintenance of immune complex glomerulonephritis' [3] and a 1985 PhD titled 'Immunopathogenesis of an experimental autoimmune renal disease in the rat' both at the University of Calgary. Returning to Auckland, she joined the University of Auckland and rose to full professor.[1] Cornish is on the boards of the International Bone & Mineral Society, International Bone Morphometry Society and is a past-president of Australian and New Zealand Bone and Mineral Society.[4]

Her research relates to cell and bone growth, investigating peptides and lipids that are anabolic to bone cells, cartilage and tendon cells.[5] She holds over 80 patents in the area.[6][citation needed]

Honours and awards
