AMSA WA

In late April, we held our annual AGM and Student Prize Night, bringing together members of the WA marine science community for an evening of updates, discussion, and outstanding student research presentations.

A special thank you to our guest speakers, Arani Chandrapavan (DPIRD) and Tom Holmes (DBCA), for sharing valuable insights into the impacts of recent marine heatwaves and the future of WA’s marine ecosystems.

We would also like to thank Elemental Consulting Services for generously sponsoring this year’s Student Prize Night and helping us celebrate emerging marine scientists.

Congratulations to all of our student finalists for delivering outstanding presentations, and especially to our award winners:

🏆 First Prize: Laura de Silva-Beiter
🥈 Runner-Up: Grady Duffy
👏 People’s Choice Award: Clement Tremblin

It was fantastic to see so many members of the WA marine science community come together for an evening of research, discussion, and networking. We look forward to seeing you at future AMSA WA events! 🌊🐠🔬
