From materials chemistry to sleep disorders, Aboriginal health, or forensic biology, the ten winners of our 2020 Vice-Chancellor\u2019s Awards for Early Career Researchers demonstrate not only remarkable talent, but also relevant research that is already making an impressive impact.<\/p>\n
All of our 2020 winning ECRs are investigating important questions of widespread relevance and although they are only at the beginning of their careers, their achievements foreshadow their bright futures.\u00a0 I have no doubt they will go on to add much more to the world.<\/p>\n
A number of this year\u2019s winners also completed their PhDs at Flinders University, and I\u2019m immensely proud that we are fostering and nurturing such talent.<\/p>\n
These ten winners emerged from an extremely competitive pool for this year\u2019s awards, and I\u2019d like to express my sincere thanks to all of the 2020 nominees – who I know are working hard and contributing significantly to the wealth of knowledge emerging from our University.<\/p>\n
Whilst we are unable to celebrate these Awards in person this year, I am sure that all of you would join me in congratulating our award winners on their fantastic achievement.<\/p>\n
And so, to this year\u2019s winners, well done!<\/p>\n
