Winners of the 2006 - 2007 Land & Water Australia Senior Research Fellowships were were presented their awards by the Hon. Julie Bishop, Minister for Education, Science and Training, at Parliament House in Canberra overnight (6 December).
Land & Water Australia Chairman Bobbie Brazil has congratulated this years winners:
Each Fellow receives up to $100,000 to allow them to take a year off from their 'normal' jobs to concentrate on a field of research.
"So often our top scientists are caught up in the day-to-day management of staff, budgets and administration, and don't have the time to explore new topics, conduct an in-depth critique or develop a significant body of research," Mrs Brazil said.
