Had my first and absolute favourite @SkypeScientist at 5:30am (AEST) with an adorable and intelligent group of 1st graders from @dwightschool in Manhattan 🇺🇸 (secretly want to be a teacher) Incredible to hear 6 year-olds say zoologists protect and look after animals 😍 #SciComm

A tribute to Prof Leanne Armand who passed away on 4 January 2022. earthsciences.anu.edu.au/people/academi… Leanne, my wish for you is to rest in peace, keep sparkling, and for your memory to live on through your wide circle of influence. I will miss you.

The @Space_Station is making several passes over Aotearoa New Zealand each day for the next couple of weeks - and here is the latest. Showing part of the South Island. Clear on the west - cloudy on the east side (over Dunedin).

Help! I'm looking to submit a paper to @STOTEN_journal (Science of the Total Environment), and am struggling a bit with the author guidelines on supplementary information. Can anyone point me to a paper they've published there that has a lot of supplementary info? Thank you!

Join me & @RosieRiots for a review of animals that you might not have even known were animals: carnation corals! We talk about what corals smell like, intense turf wars fought in super slow motion, & life as a hivemind of squishy clones. Check it out wherever you get podcasts 🌊

Almost a year since I was back home! Can't wait to see family and friends 😊

Kia Ora New Zealand! The @Space_Station made a pass directly over @Auckland_NZ on Jan 2, 2022, at 1:35PM NZDT. What a beautiful clear day. @1NewsNZ @3NewsNZ @NewshubNZ

@amygdala1997, who I co-supervise, whose review on risks from marine oil and gas infrastructure was published this year, and who won the @SETAC_AU 2021 Thesis prize for ecotoxicology. She’s growing from strength to strength and is set to have a great 2022! doi.org/10.1080/106433…

An insider’s account of what’s going on in pathology labs with PCR testing. A source in the industry has verified that this is what’s happening. Private path has earned hundreds of millions out of this yet reportedly some labs closed for the hols. reddit.com/r/CoronavirusD…

Fuck. My #DP22 with the archaeologists was successful and funded, only a few months are Macquarie made us all redundant. Awkward. Aswan would have been nice.

Stoked to be part of new research out on how hot springs affect protocell membranes (i.e. precursor to modern cell walls)! Working with @COoLLabSR's @ManeshJoshi1 and Sudha Rajamani, we used real hot spring samples in our experiments! @UNSWScience @PrebioticChem @NASAAstrobio

Delighted to share the latest paper from our lab @COoLLabSR, which is now online @Life_MDPI We thank @IISERPune @serbonline @ugc_india for all the support. Great collaboration with Martin J. Van Kranendonk & @steller_luke from @AussieAstrobio @UNSW mdpi.com/1408722 (1/4)

This announcement is a concern. The country needs to strongly fund fundamental research in addition to translational work. I wonder what this means for programs such as the DPs and CoEs which are meant to be focused on fundamental research? ministers.dese.gov.au/robert/new-dir…

It's ratified! Australia is now party to the Minamata Convention on Mercury 🐟🐟

3. AUSTRALIA RATIFIED THE MINAMATA CONVENTION ON MERCURY!!!! @minamataMEA @AusMercury This has been a long timing coming and we can all thank the incredible team at DAWE for making it happen - and with bipartisan support. #MakeMercuryHistory (4/4) awe.gov.au/environment/pr…
