ANU researchers win nation’s most prestigious funding award
The fate of galaxies, building health equity for all and making new materials from “crystal chemistry” will be the focus of three major research projects at The Australian National University (ANU) receiving more than $9.7 million in Federal Government funding.
Professor Naomi McClure-Griffiths, Professor Sharon Friel and Professor Yun Liu have all won prestigious Laureate Fellowships from the Australian Research Council – the nation’s top research funding award.
The three join 14 other Australian-based researchers sharing more than $53.7 million in funding. Vice-Chancellor Professor Brian Schmidt congratulated all three ANU winners.
“ARC Laureate Fellowships are Australia’s most prestigious researching funding scheme, recognising the very best of the best,” he said.
