RSAA Researcher, Professor Mark Krumholz, elected as Australian Academy of Science 2024 Fellow for outstanding contribution to science
Today the Australian Academy of Science announced its 2024 Fellows for outstanding contributions to Science. Among those elected is Professor Mark Krumkolz from The Australian National University's Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics.
Mark’s citation reads:
Mark Krumholz is a world leader in the study of star formation and the interstellar medium. He has contributed fundamentally to our understanding of physical mechanisms that control the rates at which galaxies form stars, the mass distribution of those stars, and the way stars cluster in space and time. These advances have been enabled by new techniques that Krumholz pioneered in computational astrophysics. His standing in the field has been recognised by numerous international awards and his textbook on star formation has shaped the next generation of researchers in the field.
The full announcement can be found at the Australian Academy of Science website.
Fellows of the Academy of Science are among the Nation’s most distinguished scientists, elected by their peers for ground-breaking research and contributions that have had clear impact.
