The 2025 Hannan Medal is in statistical science.
The 2027 Hannan Medal is in pure mathematics.
The award is made for research carried out mainly in Australia. Work carried out through a candidate’s entire career is taken into consideration but special weight is given to recent research. From the 2021 award round the Medal and a lecture will be presented at a celebration in the Awardees State capital.
This award is open to nominations for candidates from all genders. The Australian Academy of Science encourages nominations of female candidates and of candidates from a broad geographical distribution.
