CBNS Awards During 2019, members at all levels were recognised for their contribution to the Centre, as well as their hard work and dedication to science and pushing the boundaries of understanding in the area of bio-nanoscience. This section includes some of the highlights. See page X-X for a comprehensive list. During the CBNS Annual Research Workshop (ARW) held from the 27 to 28 November 2019, we recognised members for the most significant publication of 2019 and best poster presentation at the workshop as well as the winner of the Science by Design Competition. Furthermore, one student from each node was presented with the 2019 CBNS Student Travel Award and the newly created CBNS Bio-Nano Travel Grant, a travel grant for postdoctoral researchers.
