Academy admits new Fellows at Science at the Shine Dome

May 28, 2014

This year’s new Fellows were formally admitted to the Australian Academy of Science Fellowship at a ceremony in Canberra yesterday.

Twenty new Fellows across a range of disciplines, including medical research, astronomy and physics were admitted into the Fellowship as part of Science at the Shine Dome, the Academy’s annual flagship event.

Each Fellow gave a short presentation about their research area and signed the Academy’s Charter Book, which holds all the signatures of past and present Fellows.

Every year the Academy honours the work of Australia’s leading scientists with election to its Fellowship, which now numbers 481. The new Fellows have been elected for their outstanding contributions to, and application of, scientific research.
