Congratulations to Master of Philosophy student Chelsea Schwartz for winning the Jan Lee Latin award.

Chelsea's work focuses on the integration of Greek Medicine into the Early Roman Empire, and the impact of this movement on the ancient medical field.

"I feel honoured to receive this achievement and I accept this award graciously in memory of Jan. I am eager to continue and improve my Latin skills through the Ancient Languages Institute, which I believe will aid me in the writing of my thesis, and my future academic career goals," Chelsea says.

This award was created through a donation by Phoebe Jane Gunn in memory of her mother, Janice Maree Lee (1945-2021), BA (Hons) 1967, LLB 1992, M Phil 2018.
