The government recently announced the appointment of Dr Alan Finkel AO as Australia's next Chief Scientist. This appointment has been well received. Dr Finkel is a classic example of a person who is an academic, philanthropist and businessman, who will lead the government in the national innovation and science agenda as he replaces former Professor Ian Chubb AC, who has for five years been a distinguished Australian Chief Scientist.
