Professor awarded Distinguished Research Medal

One of the world's leading philosophers of science has received the University of Otago's highest research honour.

And despite publishing dozens of books and articles, Professor Alan Musgrave says he is struck dumb by gaining the Distinguished Research Medal.

The University awards the medal for outstanding scholarly achievement, including the dissemination of new knowledge.

Professor Musgrave had gained an international reputation for his research into the philosophy of sciences.
