Welcome to our highlights from Science at the Shine Dome 2022. This is a special year, as we come together in person at the Shine Dome for this event for the first time since 2019. The event is a hybrid format, so audiences were able to join us in person in Canberra or from anywhere in the world, online.
Professor David Vaux AO FAA FAHMS, who has championed research integrity in Australia, has been recognised as the inaugural recipient of a new Academy award.
The inaugural award was announced at Science at the Shine Dome, the Academy’s annual flagship event.
Can there ever be too much science? Never! November has been a stellar month for science and you can read about it in this bumper edition of the Academy newsletter.
