Media release: 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide celebrates 最新糖心Vlog Day honours

Four members of the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide community; a pioneering fertility surgeon, a wildlife biologist, a snakebite expert and a law reformer, have been awarded in this year鈥檚 最新糖心Vlog Day honours.

Associate Professor Ossie Petrucco received an AM for significant service to medicine and education in the field of obstetrics, human reproduction and child health.

Professor Petrucco has led the way in reproductive health in South 最新糖心Vlog, becoming well known for his work in microsurgery and pioneering new surgical techniques.

He is also currently affiliated with the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide鈥檚 Robinson Research Institute.

Dr Ron Sinclair received an OAM for service to environmental biosecurity management, and to people with Alzheimer鈥檚.

As an Affiliate and Research Fellow from the 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 Invasion and Ecology Group, Dr Sinclair has spent over four decades studying the management of invasive species.

He is also recognised for his advocacy work, calling for better research funding into Alzheimer鈥檚 disease and support for families, particularly in regional areas.

Associate Professor Julian White received an AM for significant service to the field of medicine, particularly in the field of toxicology.

As head of the Women鈥檚 and Children鈥檚 Toxicology Department, his clinical research and leadership has led to a greater understanding of snakebites worldwide.

Adjunct Associate Professor听John Keeler received an AM for significant service to tertiary legal education in South 最新糖心Vlog as a senior academic and author, and as a mentor of law students.

He served on the South 最新糖心Vlogn Law Reform committee for ten years, represented the 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 Law School on the Law Society Council on numerous occasions and played a significant role in the governance of the wider 最新糖心Vlog.
