Professor Hannan is internationally known for his contributions to the statistical analysis of time series and his book on this subject. His research is based on a deep understanding of spectral analysis not only in random processes but in functional analysis. He has also applied the theory to meteorological problems, and ocean waves. His work shows a thorough mastery of modern analysis.

Professor Hanna Neumann is an algebraist who has made many contributions to the modern algebraic theory of groups. Many of these have been concerned with the existence and nature of embedding groups. With her other contributions to group theory and to geometric axiomatics these discoveries have made her one of the best known present day algebraists. As head of the department of Pure Mathematics in the School of General Studies of the Australian National University she has contributed greatly to mathematical education in Australia and has helped in building a highly active research school.

Professor Mahler has over a period of 37 years made many fundamental contributions to pure mathematics, in particular to the theory of numbers. Many of his results, especially in the fields of the geometry of numbers, diophantine approximation, diophantine equations and transcendental numbers, occupy a central position in modern work. He is internationally recognized as one of the most eminent number theorists of our time.

Formerly a Fellow of St. John's College, Cambridge and lately Reader in Theoretical Physics in the University of Liverpool. His early work made contributions to abstract field theory. In recent years he has developed the theory of emission of particles from excited nuclei so that it has become possible to use the relevant experiments for a quantitative determination of the density of energy levels of nuclei. While occupied with this work he was able to develop quantitatively a method for the extraction of the beam from a synchrocyclotron which was very successful in the Liverpool machine and is being adopted for most others.

Has made many fruitful contributions to the Geometry of Numbers, showing high skill in the use of simple methods to solve problems which lie quite deep in the theory of numbers. For earlier work in this field he was awarded a Smith's Prize and was elected to a Fellowship of Trinity College, Cambridge.

Elaine Holmes is an internationally distinguished computational biologist who has made pioneering contributions to the development and implementation of metabolic phenotyping in translational clinical paradigms. Holmes is an ARC Laureate Fellow at Murdoch University, where she leads the Centre for Computational and Systems Medicine. She has a broad background in metabolic chemistry and specific expertise in spectroscopy and in chemometric modeling of spectral data, which she has applied to disease diagnosis and prognosis in a number of clinical fields including cardiometabolic and neurodegenerative diseases. In particular, much of her work focuses on the chemical dialogue between the human host and their gut microbiome and the consequent impact on human health.

Mariapia Degli-Esposti is an immunologist whose work has provided seminal insights into the immune system’s response to viruses. She defined cellular and molecular mechanisms that enable pathogen protection whilst limiting immunopathology. Her work revealed novel interactions and immunoregulatory functions of Natural Killer cells, how they limit inflammation and influence the development of autoimmunity. Her studies also addressed the breadth of responses required for effective anti-viral immunity and uncovered the importance of strain-specific antibodies in protecting against viral reactivation and disease. Her work has provided fundamental knowledge into the functioning of the immune system and components that could be harnessed therapeutically.

David Keith is an international leader in conservation science and has authored seminal texts on Australian vegetation. He led the development of biodiversity risk assessment ‘Red List’ methods and a global ecosystem typology which were adopted as global standards by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Keith has led the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems Theme, which has had major policy impacts on the protection of threatened ecosystems in Australia and around the world. Scientists and practitioners in environmental management draw extensively on Keith’s research innovations in threatened species conservation, ecosystem dynamics, fire ecology, and vegetation classification and mapping.

Belinda Medlyn is a plant physiological ecologist and mathematical modeller known for her ground-breaking contributions to understanding and predicting plant responses to climate change. Bridging the traditional divide between experimental ecology and modelling with innovative quantitative syntheses, her work has provided a compelling basis for long-term prediction of plant responses to rising CO2 concentrations, warming temperatures, and drought. Her work has been integrated into the mathematical models used to predict Earth system dynamics worldwide.
