The 2017 Vice-Chancellor's Awards for Early Career Researchers have been announced. Eight Flinders researchers have been recognised for their outstanding contribution to the University. Each recipient will receive $2,500 to fund opportunities to broaden their networks and enhance their standing and recognition as a staff member of Flinders University.

Research into early rheumatoid arthritis, on the sociology of gender and sexuality and science and technology policy studies are just three of the areas of research on which the 2017 awardees have focussed their careers. “I’m honoured to receive a Vice Chancellor’s Award for Early Career Researchers and very thankful to Flinders University for recognising and supporting my research in this way.  It was a pleasure to meet my fellow awardees at the award cemeteries and find out more about the inspiring research that ECR’s are undertaking at Flinders,” said Dr Ian Moffat. Ian is also a mentee in the 2017 Flinders University Researcher Mentoring Scheme.
