Anastasia Katherine "Anna" Donald (née Courtice; 1966 – 1 February 2009) was an Australian pioneer in the field of evidence-based medicine〔Smith, R.; Gray, M. (2009.) ("Obituary: Anna Donald" ), ''BMJ'', 338:b436. doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/bmj.b436.〕 as well as an epidemiologist and company director. ==Early life and early education== Anastasia Katherine "Anna" Courtice is the child of biologist Tony Courtice and Janet, then an honours student in Classics at the University of Sydney, in 1966. Via Janet, Anna is of Anglo-Chinese descent; Anna's maternal grandmother's surname is Dong.〔 At age 2 years, Anna's parents separated.〔 Following her parents' separation, Anna and her mother lived with Anna's maternal grandparents for a year.〔 Later, Courtice's mother divorced Courtice and married lawyer Bruce Donald, with whom she would rear Anna Donald.〔 Donald undertook her secondary education at North Sydney Girls High School〔 in Crows Nest, New South Wales and Narrabundah College in Canberra.〔 During this time, Donald distinguished herself from her peers by winning state and national prizes in mathematics and French.〔 Further, she represented Australia in the International Mathematical Olympiad.〔 However, her education at North Sydney Girls was not without issue. In 1981, after Bruce Donald and Janet separated, Anna experienced emotional symptoms and developed anorexia nervosa.〔 In Year 10, Donald attended school in France for several months.〔 Depressed and disenchanted with her old school when she returned to Australia, Donald then moved Narrabundah College in Canberra, where she completed Years 11 and 12.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anna Donald」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
