Fresh Science competition closes this week


Monday, 28 August, 2017

Nominations for Fresh Science, the national competition that helps early-career researchers find, and then share, their stories of discovery, close on Thursday, 31 August.

The competition is seeking early-career researchers with a peer-reviewed discovery that has had little or no media coverage, and with some ability to present their ideas in everyday English.

Now in its 20th year, Fresh Science has trained more than 500 scientists to share their science and has generated hundreds of news stories via TV, print, radio and online. To read past Fresh Scientists’ stories online, visit freshscience.org.au.
