Background to nomination: Chris is extremely passionate about his career as a Nuclear Medicine Technologist and has contributed in so many ways to the development of the profession. Chris has been a Nuclear Medicine Technologist for 32 years and has been an active member of the ANZSNMT for the past 25 years. He joined at a time prior to the CPD program, to which Chris was a major contributor. He is also an active member of the ACT Medical Radiation Scientists board, providing valuable expertise to the national registration steering committee over the past 3 years. His wealth of knowledge, leadership and dedication has helped keep the TSIG in the great form it is today. Chris McLaren is a shining example of all the Society stands for. For these reasons and many more, we cannot recommend Chris more highly for this life membership. Unanimously approved, with the plaque to be awarded at the Gala Dinner.
