    Halina Rubinsztein-DunlopAO FAA is a professor of physics at the University of Queensland and an Officer of the Order of Australia.[1][2] She has led pioneering research in atom optics, laser micro-manipulation using optical tweezers, laser enhanced ionisation spectroscopy, biophysics and quantum physics.[3][4]

    Early life

    Halina Rubinsztein (later Rubinsztein-Dunlop) was born in Poland.[5] She emigrated to Sweden[1] where she obtained her BSc and PhD degree from the University of Gothenburg.[4] Rubinsztein-Dunlop was encouraged to be curious about the world by her mother, also a physicist.

    In an interview for SPIE, she credits her mother's guidance and enthusiasm for science: "she taught me to persist and to be inquisitive and to want to understand, and also - and I think this is what was important - she showed me that women can do it.
