Athene Donald is a professor of Experimental Physics at the University of Cambridge where she has spent most of her career aside from a 4-year spell at Cornell University in the United States of America. Since her PhD, she has utilized a variety of microscopies in her research, and has been working on ESEM for the past 20 yeare. She is a soft matter and biological physicist who studies polymers of both synthetic and biological origin, with a particular emphasis on starch and proteins. She has been awarded numerous prizes during her career, including the Faraday and Mott Prizes of the Institute of Physics, the Bakerian Lectureship of the Royal Society, and was the Laureate for Europe in 2009 of the L Oreal/UNESCO for Women in Science awards. She was elected a fellow of the Royal Society in 1999 and a Dame Commander of the British Empire (DBE) in 2010.
