A group snap from our Postdoc Research Forum which included amazing talks from researchers across the campus including Garvan Institute of Medical Research Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute and St. Vincent’s Centre for Applied Medical Research. Thanks to all the members of the Postdoctoral Development Committee for organising the day.

It felt amazing to be teaching a room full of eager female science students about epigenetics so soon after the news that female scientists are almost completely absent in the HSC curriculum 💪🏻 #WomenInSTEM #superstarsofSTEM #scienceAU

A break from regular programming as we had the amazing opportunity to learn from journalists SBS News on Friday. We discussed how to ensure accurate and compelling science reporting. Is if that wasn't enough, I got to spend the day with the fabulous NSW #SuperstarsofSTEM cohort.

I had so much fun talking to 120 high school students about what it means to be an epigeneticist for the L’Oreal UNESCO Girls in Science Forum! Congrats to all of the L’Oreal Fellows, you are smashing it.

Thanks to the organisers of Biomolecular Horizons 2024 for inviting me to talk about my recent publication on persistent CTCF binding site mutations in cancer. This conference has been a blast! #bmh2024
