Congratulations go out to STEVEN M. STANLEY, research professor, department of geology and geophysics,
University of Hawaii, Honolulu who will be presented with the MARY CLARK THOMPSON MEDAL – a medal and prize of $15,000 awarded every three years to recognize important services to geology and paleontology. Stanley was chosen "for research and leadership in bivalve functional morphology and the macroevolution of disparate animals, including hominids, in the context of Earth's physical and chemical history." The medal was established by a gift of Mary Clark Thompson and has been presented since 1921.
