“The Brady Medal is widely recognized in the Micropalaeontological community as an award of excellence as evidenced by the calibre of previous recipients. This award is being made because of the widely recognized and appreciated contribution Ellen has made to micropalaeontology internationally. This has included communicating to an extremely broad audience fascinating, impactful and often thought-provoking research. Also, equally important, has been Ellen’s academic encouragement of students and peers over the years with her generosity of time in a very busy and succesful career.” - Dr. F. John Gregory, President TMS
