A cool benefit of receiving a medal is attending Science at the Shine Dome (#ShineDome22), where all the new fellows are inducted.

Hard to describe how inspiring it is to see a diverse group of scientists share their career highlights.

BUT... (2/n)...

Such a buzz to MC the @Science_Academy Awards at the Gala Dinner in the Great Hall of Parliament House, Canberra, with the indomitable #WomenInScience, @LynBeazley, during #ShineDome22

Great celebration of Australian science at #ShineDome22 Gala Dinner #WomenInScience

@UOW winners of @Science_Academy awards (all from SEALS!) with the legendary Robyn Williams (a South Coast local!): Nico Flament, Alison Broad, yours truly, @KerryleeRogers_ and Allen Nutman
#ShineDome22

Congratulations to all the new fellows and thanks to @Science_Academy for organising a day full of inspiring talks from a diverse array of Australian scientists #ShineDome22

And finally @matthewbailes on pulsars, collisions, and gravitational wave direction #ShineDome22

@AlbertZomaya on “edge computing” - bringing the cloud closer to the end-user for IoT (internet of things) applications across health, energy, defence, and more. #ShineDome22

Kate Smith-Miles - algorithms are “buyer-beware” - but now there are tools to test the validity and strengths and weaknesses of different algorithms #ShineDome22

Craig Simmons - another modeller! - on the importance of groundwater, and the huge challenge of modelling in a system where hydraulic characteristics vary by 13 orders of magnitude #ShineDome22

@UteRoessner explaining metabolomics (new term for me!) and how this can teach us about how plants interact with microbes - and how these interactions change under warmer temperatures #ShineDome22

Sarah Medland, on the power of bringing the community together collaboratively for really understanding the outcomes of brain imaging #ShineDome22

Back to it, with a fascinating talk from @naomimcgriff on mapping and understanding the structure of the Milky Way - including the role of magnetic fields in setting structure #ShineDome22

And rounding out the session - Janice Lough on the devastating changes to coral reefs that have happened over the course of her professional career #ShineDome22

Peter Langridge on the increasing global gap in wheat yields- and how technologies are starting to address this #ShineDome22

Lei Jiang on the MANY applications of the yin and yang of superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic systems and materials #ShineDome22

Next is Tim Hughes on a related topic - improving responses and recovery from chronic myeloid leukaemia #ShineDome22

Excited to be in Canberra about to hear about the incredible science of the newest @Science_Academy fellows at Science at the Shine Dome #ShineDome22
