ANZIC Prize for Best Student Publication
Calling all students!
Have you got a stellar publication in scientific drilling? The ANZIC Prize for Best Student Publication is your chance to shine!
By highlighting exceptional work, we aim to support early-career researchers in continuing their engagement with ANZIC and advancing their careers in scientific drilling
Join one of FIVE workshops!
Combine your expertise with scientists from around the globe to create viable drilling proposals for these IODP3 or ICDP projects. Remember that ANZIC Travel Support is available to help you travel to workshops like these.

Call for New Zealand Representative to IODP3 Science Board
IODP3 are seeking applications from suitably qualified and experienced scientists from New Zealand to join the Science Board of their Mission-Specific Platform Facility Board (MSP-FB). This Science Board plays a key role in decision-making and consists of leading scientists drawn from the international scientific ocean drilling community.
Join us to showcase scientific drilling at upcoming National Conferences!
Australian Earth Sciences Convention (AESC 2026)
Let's make scientific drilling a highlight at this event!
We will hold a booth and run a workshop: Shaping the Future of Australia’s Involvement in the Global Scientific Drilling Programs.
It's on in February and we can't wait to see you there!
Tracking the travels of dust – could ocean cores hold the key?
A project funded by ANZIC’s AILAF Grants aims to investigate.
We all know dust can travel on the wind… and get into everything – usually in small amounts. For researchers like Dr Sam Marx, at the University of Wollongong
Venturing deep into the past lives of coral reefs: Professor Jody Webster on IODP Expedition 389
“We are going to learn a lot. It’s going to be fascinating to see what the reef cores look like and what they can tell us. My advice – if there’s fundamental scientific questions you want to answer – keep working and keep pushing! Never give up!
