Three ANU scholars, and one who will move to ANU to take up the nation's most prestigious fellowship, were named ARC Laureate Fellows by the Minister for Tertiary Education, Skills, Science and Research Senator Chris Evans at a ceremony in Canberra today.

They are a cause for celebration across campus." "I heartily congratulate all the ARC Laureate Fellows announced today, but especially the four researchers who will conduct their work at ANU.
