IODE 2011 Achievement Award
| "Murray Brown started working with IODE in the 1980s after he completed a long and distinguished career in the US. We soon discovered Murray’s considerable talent as a teacher. Murray has the rare quality of explaining complex issues in a way that people can understand. Murray was without a doubt the founder of IODE’s training programme which started with OceanPC. Later he was, together with Greg Reed, one of the main teachers in ODINEA and ODINAFRICA’s data management programme. Nearly all African NODC data managers have been trained by Murray. Murray has now been an IODE teacher for more than 20 years and he is still as enthusiastic and driven as ever. Students still ask for "Dr Murray" and we hope that Murray will continue to help us create tomorrow’s data managers. " |
