The 成人大片 grabbed the majority of the spoils at today's Tall Poppy Science Awards luncheon, where a high field of South Australia's leading young scientific and biomedical researchers were named.

Of the nine recipients, six are either currently associated with the University or studied at this institution.

The awards recognise and reward individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to science in South Australia through their academic achievements and their community engagement in promoting science.

The following are associated with the 成人大片:
