AAL Board Chair, Prof Naomi McClure-Griffiths, awarded prestigious Laureate Fellowship from the Australian Research Council

AAL is delighted to congratulate Professor Naomi McClure-Griffiths for being awarded a prestigious Laureate Fellowship from the Australian Research Council. Professor McClure-Griffiths is the Associate Director at ANU’s Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics, and currently serves as AAL’s Board Chair.

Professor McClure-Griffiths was awarded the Laureate Fellowship to continue her study of galaxy evolution – how gas and magnetism determine the fate of galaxies. Her work will utilise one of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) precursor instruments, the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP), and will explore our Milky Way galaxy along with the neighbouring Magellanic Clouds.
