Celebrating Customer Success

Tim Brodribb - Science at the Dome 2024
Tim Brodribb presenting at Science at the Dome 2024

Congratulations to Professor Tim Brodribb and Professor Belinda Medlyn

Long term customers Tim Brodribb (University of Tasmania) and Belinda Medlyn (Western Sydney University) have both been elected to the Australian Academy of Science. A recognition of their contribution to science by their peers, Tim was elected in 2023, whilst Belinda was elected in 2024.

Both customers are users of ICT International instruments in their work on tree and plant hydraulics, and the reaction to the changing climate that they grow in, and we recognise their significant contribution to plant science.
