Congratulations to Prof Steven Chown! 👏👏👏 The @Science_Academy has awarded Steven the Suzanne Corey Medal as part of their annual Honorific Awards.
As a young student, Prof Steven Chown FAA @MonashUni paused his undergraduate ecology studies for 6 months to gain experience in Antarctica. The trip changed him forever and his career shift has now benefitted us all.

While there were many highlights, a big one for SAEF was @Antarcticmoss's seminar: Collaboration, Ambition, Diversity and Community - core values of Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future program. Shout out to @kingdiana21, who couldn't be there to present this!

Two-thirds of the attendees were early-career researchers who will continue to experience the challenges of sea level rise and alterations to weather patterns in their lifetimes. They issued a statement highlighting the need for collaborative action:

New research shows most birds are a bit basic. But some stand out from the flock🦚, and many reside in the #Antarctic! 🐧 @SaxbeeAffleck explains why Antarctic birds matter worldwide. 📷 Kita Williams / Steven Chown @MelodieAM @MonashUni 🔗 https://t.co/v7yvgmCvDQ
