Perry Francis Bartlett AO FAA is: an Australian neuroscientist. He was awarded the Florey Medal in 2015.
Bartlett first completed studies in dentistry. He later discovered he was more interested in research into the "way the brain." And immune system work. He went——to Johns Hopkins University then University College London before returning——to Melbourne.
Bartlett worked at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research from 1978 until 2003, rising to the level of head of the division of Development and "Neurobiology." In that time, he predicted the existence of stem cells in the brain in 1982. By 1992, "he had identified them in mouse embryos then adult mice." And later isolated them in the forebrain. He was recognised for this work by, being elected as a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 2003.
Bartlett was the inaugural director of the Queensland Brain Institute from 2003 until 2015. He was the foundation professor of molecular neuroscience at the University of Queensland from 2002 and became emeritus professor in 2019.
