I was awarded the competitive International Post-graduate Research Scholarship (Ausralian Government; James Cook University) and the Prestige Scholarship (James Cook University) in 2015 for a period of three and a half years. The former covered the cost of study at James Cook University, and Overseas Health Cover. Both scholarships contributed a living stipend. Chapter 2; contributors: Alexandra S. Grutter, Mark J.
