⠀

As a young man CSL chairman John Shine AC made one discovery that spawned the modern biotech industry and then he made a few more. Professor Shine has been described as the "the father of gene cloning" and today millions of people around the world receive therapies created through the cloning process.⠀
⠀
Although a highly-decorated scientist, he's a modest, Aussie bloke who grew up in the backyard, loved to fish and thought he wanted to be a vet. Now, at 71, he still runs "a little laboratory" at Sydney's prestigious @garvaninstitute of Medical Research. ⠀
⠀
Our reporter Jill Margo sat down for lunch with Professor Shine at @bistro_moncur.⠀

Manners may maketh man, but a damn good tuxedo helps. In celebration of all things dashing, filmmaker Matthew Vaughn and @mrporterlive have collaborated on a ‘costume to collection’ capsule for the sequel to @kingsmanmovie. Unlike real spies, don't expect to blend in with the Kingsman Eggsy orange tuxedo: $2251.⠀
⠀
For the ladies looking to make a statement - while avoiding the discomfort of five-inch heels - cast your gaze towards @louboutinworld’s Charletta Velours Flamenco brogues: $1345. Or consider a show stopping statement necklace from @dior Fine Jewellery’s new updates to the Rose des Vents collection: $125,000.⠀
⠀
On the accessories front, it's almost impossible not to fall in love with the Big Bang Unico Sapphire - a ruby-hued beauty of a timepiece from @hublot: $95,000. While @henrywilsonstudio’s solid gunmetal bronze Surface Sconce will create the perfect ambiance in which to talk about and admire Henry Wilson’s solid gunmetal bronze Surface Sconce.⠀

@google has topped the Fortune Best Companies to Work For list for six years in a row.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
But the $US600 billion ($756 billion) behemoth has had to fend off a storm of criticism after the release of a 10-page anti-diversity manifesto by one of its engineers last month.⠀⠀
⠀⠀

⠀⠀
As this breakdown shows, not a lot has changed since 2014.⠀⠀
