AINSE GOLD MEDAL RECIPIENT

The Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering (AINSE) is pleased to announce the AINSE gold medal was presented to Professor Ian Gentle at the AINSE Annual General Meeting dinner in May 2017 by the AINSE President Professor Claire Lenehan and AINSE’s original scientific secretary and executive officer Dr Bill Palmer OBE (1958-1988).

Professor Gentle is the AINSE Councillor for the University of Queensland, currently serves on the AINSE Board and is the President of the Australian Neutron Beam Users Group (ANBUG).

Professor Gentle is an internationally recognized leader in surface science, and utilizes a wide array of cutting edge surface and interface analysis techniques in his research including neutron and X-ray reflectivity (NR and XRR). It is in the context of NR and XRR that he has had an association leading to nineteen papers affiliated with ANSTO staff involving the support of AINSE. Professor Gentle has provided (and continues to provide) significant service and leadership to the AINSE and ANSTO scientific communities over an extensive period of time.

Women in STEM and Entrepreneurship Programme

AINSE WISE School to inspire women in STEM to take on leadership roles

The Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering (AINSE) is to receive funding through the Women in STEM and Entrepreneurship programme under the National Innovation and Science Agenda. AINSE will use this funding to invite a female student from each of its 35 Australian University members to attend a school at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO), Lucas Heights. The school will target 1st year University students, with an emphasis on women in STEM, and promote a range of exciting career opportunities in nuclear science and engineering.

The students will have the opportunity to experience first hand some of the research undertaken with the large infrastructure at ANSTO and see the leadership roles that women are currently undertaking in some of these fields. As part of this school AINSE will be inviting leading women in STEM to provide tours, workshops, talks and panel sessions to help inspire women into considering senior leadership roles in STEM. Mentors will also be arranged to provide a more long-term support network for the students to access as they make key career-defining decisions throughout their undergraduate degrees.

"The team at AINSE are delighted by this opportunity and look forward to encouraging women in STEM to pursue leadership roles in the future. By making connections with students early in their undergraduate degrees we hope to highlight the amazing opportunities that are available to women in nuclear science and engineering.”
