Huge congratulations to Christine Janis for her two awards from the US. Christine worked for most of her adult life at Brown University.

These awards are in addition to the George Gaylord Simpson Prize for Paleontology (Yale University) in 1985 and her election into the Fellow of the Paleontological Society in 2007.
Chrstine told us that her love of, and subsequent success in, biology was strongly influenced by St Helen's teacher, Elizabeth Whittick, who she stayed in touch with.
Congratulations Christine, we love sharing good news!
