Awards and Prizes

To recognise and celebrate the important contribution made by students worldwide to all branches of mammalogy studies, the Editorial Board of Australian Mammalogy is pleased to offer an annual award for the best student-authored paper published in the journal in each calendar year.

The recipient of the prize will receive a monetary award of AU$1,000 and a certificate.

To be eligible for the prize, the student must be the lead author of the paper, and the paper must be submitted for publication while the student is enrolled for PhD programme, or within two years of completing the higher degree. Nominations are welcome, and students may indicate their eligibility when submitting their paper. Entries will be judged by a panel comprising the Editors-in-Chief and at least two other Associate Editors.
