"A Monash University researcher who is helping determine why some organ transplants are rejected has been awarded a high commendation in the Premier of Victoria's 2005 Award for Medical Research.

Ms Lauren Ely, who is undertaking her PhD at Monash, is studying proteins within the body's immune system that are able to identify "foreign" cells and cause organ transplant rejection."
