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:
