I’ve received a Tall Poppy Science Award from the Queensland Chief Scientist, Dr Geoff Garrett, and the Queensland Science Minister, Leeanne Enoch.

The Tall Poppy Campaign was created in 1998 by the Australian Institute of Policy and Science to recognise and celebrate Australian intellectual and scientific excellence and to encourage younger Australians to follow in the footsteps of our outstanding achievers. It has made significant achievements towards building a more publicly engaged scientific leadership in Australia.
