The Young Tall Poppy Award recognizes the achievements of outstanding young researchers from various science backgrounds who are working in Australia. In 2010, ten scientists were honoured this award here in New South Wales, Mike being one of them. Way to go Mike!
Here’s some photos from the awards ceremony where we couldn’t find a sitter so Tomas was also in attendance! He was the only child there and I must say he was on his very best behaviour! Everyone came up to Mike and I and commented on how wonderful he was!!
Wow! Congratulations Michael! That’s an amazing honour and very well deserved! It’s super inspiring to read about this accomplishment and your research. I’m so glad Tomas and Beth were there to celebrate with you. And Beth – you look hot We’re thinking of you at this exciting time!
