To be amongst these amazing people and to hear their stories was an amazing experience. Learn more about these awards here. With UTS Chancellor Catherine Livingstone AO Well done to all of the recipients and many thanks to Steven Langford for nominating me, to James Wallman and all the science faculty staff.
