ATSE is proud to celebrate that Distinguished Professor Lidia Morawska FTSE FAA has been awarded the 2025 Prime Minister’s Prize for Science. A new Fellow of the Academy this year, her work is globally recognised as redefining air pollution science.
The first astronaut flying under the Australian flag, a pioneer of aerial robotics technology, an air quality expert who helped highlight the airborne spread of COVID-19, and a leading environmental campaigner and former federal minister are all among ATSE new Fellows elected in 2025.
Over the span of her career, Katherine has led and supported the critical work of 14 different Cooperative Research Centres covering sectors from bushfire safety, climate change, medical technology and Antarctic science.
