Russell Barrow is a group leader (Organic Chemistry of Natural Systems) at the Research School of Chemistry, Australian National University. After completing B.Sc.(Hons.) and Ph.D. degrees at The University of Melbourne, he undertook post-doctoral research at The University of Hawaii, focusing on the isolation and synthesis of natural products. His current research interests include the chemical ecology of pollination strategies employed by Australian insects and the chemistry supporting the traditional use of fungi in Papua New Guinea, where he has an adjunct appointment at the University of Goroka.
