Lorenzi Vilizzi
 Since completion of his PhD in 1997, Lorenzo Vilizzi has been working and collaborating to disparate projects formerly as a postdoc researcher in the UK, then as an external consultant (in both ecology and biostatistics) to several research institutions throughout Europe, and more recently in Australia. The outcomes of his PhD work have since represented a milestone for research on the population dynamics of common carp Cyprinus carpio, with applications not only in Australia (with a view to options for control) but also in several other countries. His studies on fish habitat use models have improved understanding of relationships at various temporal and spatial scales. Lorenzo's recent contribution to the development, evaluation and calibration of a screening tool for the importation of non-native freshwater fish species has been part of a multi-national collaborative European project, which more recently has met with support from researchers both within and outside Europe with underway applications to other taxa (e.g. macroinvertebrates). Currently, he is involved in a multi-disciplinary and multi-group inter-state project looking at the development of ecological response models to flow for fish, vegetation and birds in the Murray-Darling Basin (south-eastern Australia).
