CatalystAustralian Museum Eureka Prizes The Australian Museum Eureka Prizes are the Oscars of Australian science. Catalyst brings you the winners of the major awards including the young recipient of the Sleek Geeks Prize for students and the illustrious People’s Choice Award. In this year The International Year of Biodiversity, Catalyst focuses on the loss of species and the importance of not squandering the world’s natural wealth. Prominent scientists in attendance voice their views on the potential gains that can be made from highly diverse ecosystems and what is at stake if we don’t maintain them. Penguins – Winners and Losers Gentoo and Adelie Penguins live side by side on the Antarctic Peninsula. Over the past few decades the Adelie penguin populations have been declining quite rapidly, while over the same period the Gentoo has risen in number and extended their range. These changes are largely the result of a reduction in sea ice which has caused a decline in the amount of krill available for the penguins to feed on. Dr Paul Willis travels to the world’s coldest continent, to find out how our southern neighbours are faring in a warming world. Zebra Finch Australia has celebrated several renowned scientists. But there is one unsung hero that deserves a special mention - the Zebra Finch. This attractive little bird’s resilience in the Australian environment, monogamous breeding habit and birdsong has seen it become one of scientists’ darlings for research. They are the second bird in history to have their genome mapped. In this profile, the extent of the contribution to science of this true Aussie battler is revealed.
