โI congratulate our distinguished researchers on being recognised by their peers as being at the very top of their fields,โ Professor Currow said.
โAnd congratulations also to those who have helped รรอลสำฦต achieve recognition as a leader in computer security and cryptography, manufacturing and machinery, medical technology and devices, and media technology.
โIt is wonderful to see so many of our researchers acknowledged for their excellence. It is especially pleasing to see researchers from each of our faculties on the list and to see รรอลสำฦต researchers feature in each of the eight discipline areas, highlighting the variety and breadth of the truly world-class research being undertaken at our University.โ
