July was a busy months for the McGraw group!
Denise Chen, Wayne Dillon and Habibeh Hashemi presented their newest sensors at the 2019 NZ Marine Sciences Society Conference in Dunedin in July. Congratulations to Wayne, who was awarded the MPI Prize for the “student poster making the best use of quantitative methodology”.
Our group’s research was highlighted in posters hung around the city for 2 weeks in July. As part of the Arts + Ocean project, Christina worked with fibre artist Hope Duncan, who made a beautiful jellyfish sculpture inspired by our lab’s work developing sensors for ocean acidification. The posters, which included photographs from the Arts + Ocean exhibition, highlighted the importance of the oceans.

Finally, in spite of the smiles, we were sad to see Anna return to Sweden after a wonderful year in New Zealand.
