We host an annual awards night in the School of Earth Atmosphere and Environment to celebrate the achievements of our students and early career researchers.

It’s genuinely my favourite event of the year @monashuniversity.bsky.social

Thanks @melaniefinch.bsky.social our guest speaker this year!

Currently putting together the figures for a manuscript on the subduction channel at Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia. So hard to choose from all the fabulous photos, including this one with folded layers of eclogite and grt-phn schist cut by a glaucophane vein 🀩
