Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science

In the 1990s, membership and attendance at the annual meetings decreased as specialised scientific societies increased in popularity.

The Medal was awarded annually to a scientist who is the author of important contributions to anthropological, botanical, geological or zoological science, preferably with special reference to Australia.

Youth ANZAAS is an annual residential scientific forum for senior Australasian secondary school students from Years 9, 10, 11 and 12.

This event is designed to provide students with a broad perspective on the aims and practice of scientific endeavour, ranging from satisfying curiosity and the drive to discover, to the application of science in the real world.

It gives students the opportunity to visit world-class facilities where cutting edge research is undertaken and meet leading scientists.
