Summary

The Russell Grimwade School of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology was established at the University of Melbourne in 1961 and is now known as the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Prior to the establishment of this school, Biochemistry had been taught within the Physiology Department. The School was named after Russell Grimwade, a former science graduate, who made a 50,000 pound endowment in 1944 which helped fund the construction of the university's first Biochemistry building which was completed in 1956.
