Congratulations to two Academy Fellows recognised in the NSW Premier's Prizes for Science and Engineering. 🏆
Congratulations to Academy Fellow Professor Nalini Joshi (@monsoon0) who has been named NSW Scientist of the Year – the first time a mathematician has received NSW's highest honour for scientific endeavour. Prof Joshi's groundbreaking work in mathematical physics explores the hidden patterns that govern everything from water waves to quantum particles, revealing the deep mathematical structures underlying our physical world. She was elected an Academy Fellow in 2008.
The NSW Premier's Prizes for Science and Engineering also recognised Professor Brajesh Singh FAA (@Prof_Braj_Singh) – elected a Fellow of the Academy in 2023 – a world-leading soil microbial ecologist from Western Sydney University. Prof Singh, awarded for Excellence in Biological Sciences, conducts research that is crucial for sustainable agriculture and climate action, investigating how soil microbes can help crops withstand drought and extreme heat while reducing the need for chemical fertilisers.
Dr. M. L. Jat, DG #ICAR, visited Western Sydney University for the AIWC Symposium 2025 and signed Annexure IX of the ICAR–WSU Work Plan, strengthening Indo-Australian collaboration in climate-resilient agriculture, water sustainability, dual-degree programs & capacity building.
We are pleased to announce that the call for symposium at @ICOM2026 is now open.
Deadline for submission: 15 October 2025
Decision: 1 November 2025

We often measure AM fungal colonisation assuming it tells us something about function. But… what does it tell us?
A short Letter in @NewPhyt where I ask what root colonisation really means for plant growth, P uptake, and defence.
