I won the 2024 Dean's Award for Graduate Research Supervision:  https://www.monash.edu/it/research/awards-and-successes/faculty-awards 

I received a 2024 Vice-Chancellors special commendation for Graduate Research supervision.

I have been very fortunate to have worked with many excellent Post-doctoral Fellows, Research Assistants, and PhD, Masters by Research, Post-graduate project and Honors students over many years.

I am not currently taking on any new students.
