Eliza Rowdon Hall (26 November 1847 – 14 February 1916) was an Australian philanthropist.
Born Eliza Rowdon Kirk, she married the Sydney businessman Walter Russell Hall in Melbourne in April 1874.[1] After Walter's death in 1911, Eliza, who was childless, founded The Walter and Eliza Hall Trust that led to the establishment of the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, using funds earned from Hall's business interests to establish the Trust.[2] Grants from the Trust led to the establishment of the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research.[3][4]
Her work later inspired Vera Ramaciotti who went on to create the Clive and Vera Ramaciotti Foundation, which awards grants for medical research.[5]
