Dr Richard Palmer, the biochemist whose early research helped pave the way for the development of assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF; Irish radio legend Donncha Ó Dúlaing, and the world-renowned geographer Professor Anne Buttimer, winner of what is considered the Nobel Prize of Geography, will also be recognised with Alumni Achievement Awards.
