Inaugural Heyde Medal awarded to Anthony Henderson

In its media release of 8/12/2010 the Australian Academy of Science announced that the Christopher Heyde Medal for 2011 has been awarded to Anthony Henderson.

This inaugural award was for research in pure mathematics. The citation reads as follows:

Anthony Henderson has made fundamental contributions in representation theory, an area which concerns the algebraic patterns underlying collections of geometric transformations. He has invented geometric spaces which give new information about common symmetry types, and has introduced new methods for performing calculations in existing geometric spaces which take their symmetry into account. His work combines ideas from different areas of mathematics, and provides explicit formulas for use in a wide range of problems which involve observations on spaces with symmetry.

The purpose of the award, which honours the contributions to mathematics by Professor Christopher Charles Heyde AM, DSc, Hon DSc(Syd), is to recognise distinguished research in the mathematical sciences by a researcher under the age of 40. The award carries a prize of $10,000.

J B Douglas awards to Anna Campain and Joanna Wang

The NSW Branch of the Statistical Society of Australia held the annual J B Douglas Postgraduate Awards Ceremony at the Macquarie Graduate School of Management on November 25th. Two of the three $750 prizes awarded were won by Anna Campain and Joanna Wang, PhD students in the School of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Sydney.

Prestigious teaching award to David Easdown

David Easdown was presented with a 2010 NSW Quality Teaching Award for the tertiary sector at a ceremony at Government House, Sydney, on 5 November 2010.

These awards, under the auspices of the Australian College of Educators, and administered through the NSW Department of Education and Training, are among the most prestigious awards for teaching in Australia. The rigorous and comprehensive assessment process involves in-class observation by ACE experts, and interviews with students and professional colleagues, as well as refereeing.

See Teaching@Sydney for more details.

School of Mathematics and Statistics ARC success

Members of the School of Mathematics and Statistics have received funding from the Australian Research Council for the following new research projects, commencing in 2011.

Poster prize for Ellis Patrick

Ellis Patrick was awarded the student poster prize at the Australian Microarray and Associated Technologies Association Inc 2010 conference (AMATA 2010) held in Hobart from September 14th to 17th.

His poster was entitled "Optimising a Genomic Annotation for the Analysis of RNA-Seq Data".

Research project to study aerial dynamics of athletes

Associate Professor Holger Dullin, in collaboration with Dr Surya Singh from the Australian Centre of Field Robotics, Dr Peter Sinclair from the Faculty of Health Sciences and Dr Damien O'Meara from the NSW Institute of Sport, has obtained an ARC Linkage for a project entitled "Bodies in Space". The team summarize the project as follows:

By investigating how a change in shape of the human body can produce a change in spatial orientation, the project will bring a fundamental advance of knowledge in the intersection of applied mathematics, sports science and mechanical engineering. These knowledge advances will lead to a novel theory regarding the control of the aerial dynamics of athletes, specifically springboard and platform divers. When applied in collaboration with world class Australian athletes, this theory will result in innovative platform and springboard diving techniques and improved performance. The reach of new insights generated by this work extends to many other fields, including robotics, spacecraft dynamics and nano technology.
