In Memoriam: Associate Professor Mark Fear

The Women and Infants Research Foundation is deeply saddened by the passing of Associate Professor Mark Fear.

Mark was a dedicated researcher whose work in burn injury, wound healing and fibrosis has transformed both science and patient care. WIRF was proud to support Mark’s work into advancing our understanding of women’s health, particularly in the area of how metabolic and immune changes contribute to the progression and symptoms of endometriosis. His contributions will have a lasting impact on improving outcomes for women in Australia and beyond.

Beyond his scientific achievements, Mark was a valued colleague and mentor, known for his generosity, curiosity, and commitment to translational research. His collaborative spirit and dedication to improving lives will be missed by all who had the privilege to work with him.

Our thoughts are with Mark’s family, friends, and the broader research community during this difficult time.
