This year's Young Tall Poppy Science Awards are
now open for nominations, closing 6 April 2021.
These national awards recognise early-career
researchers who are passionate science communicators, with excellent
research achievements in science, mathematics, engineering, technology, medical
research or social/behavioural science. Up to 12 awards have been made annually
in Victoria, ahead of the national competition.
Requirements:
Candidates must have graduated from their PhD
between 3 and 10 years ago (after accounting for career
interruptions), but can be of any age (unlike in previous
years). Only Australian/NZ citizens and Australian
permanent residents are eligible. Other conditions apply. Candidates will also
need the support of a senior nominator in their own field, who will need to
participate in completing the nomination.
Online information sessions:
· AIPS
will provide state-level information sessions. Details have not been
published to date.

Guidance:
Guidance information can be found in the email circulated
on the 15th of February from SCS Research Manager Adrienne Calder.
