Eureka Prize!
We were awarded the 2012 Eureka Prize for Scientific Research at a gala event last night! My long-time collaborators at the University of New South Wales – John Webb, Victor Flambaum, Julian King and Julian Berengut – and myself were awarded the Prize for our work on possible evidence for spatial variations in the fine-structure constant across the Universe.
Check out the media releases by Swinburne and UNSW.
