Professor Gregory Webb on coral reefs, climate, and carrying Dorothy Hill’s torch
When Professor Gregory Webb first arrived at The University of Queensland in 1984, it was with the dream of studying under the shadow of a scientific giant. Now, more than 40 years later, he is stepping down from the Dorothy Hill Chair in Geological Sciences – an academic role named in honour of the very person who first drew him to UQ: Australia’s trailblazing geologist and palaeontologist, Professor Dorothy Hill.
