Congrats Dr Joseph Richardson on being selected a 2024 VIC Young Tall Poppy! Dr. Richardson's research focuses on the agricultural and environmental challenges unique to Australia and he has begun to design nanomaterials to stop invasive pathogens and boost crop yields.

Congrats Dr Susi Seibt for being named a 2024 VIC Young Tall Poppy! All medical products require research & testing to determine their safety & efficacy before human use. Susi uses harvested human cells from donors to grow fully functional organoids on a microscopy slide scale.
