ANU Vice-Chancellor Ian Young welcomed news that four ANU professors have been elected as Fellows of the Australian Academy of Science. "I would like to congratulate all 21 new Academy Fellows across the nation, but especially the four from ANU. It is a great honour to be elected to a learned academy by ones peers. This is a great result for the individuals involved, but also for the whole ANU community," he said. The Academy's annual election honours a small number of Australian scientists for their outstanding contributions to science. This year, the 21 new Fellows include: Professor John Norris of the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics for 'discoveries that changed several concepts in astronomy, including the formation of galaxies'. Professor Patrick De Deckker of the Research School of Earth Sciences for 'linking the patterns of environmental change on land and at sea'.
