	McLean
		He retired in 2001, but keeps his same office as an emeritus curator and remains active in order to continue his research.
		His work has focused on the systematics of marine gastropods, including the Patellogastropoda and Vetigastropoda, particularly the families Trochidae, Turbinidae, as well as the family Turridae.
		Following the discovery of hydrothermal vent communities in 1977, Dr. McLean studied and named a number of limpet families from that community.

		I received the Young Australia of the Year Award in Science and Technology for this research.
		High concentrations of Omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid ethyl esters have also been detected in species from the Turbinidae.
		Many Australian molluscs hold good potential for promotion as healthy foods or for the development of novel nutriceuticals and potential pharmaceuticals.
