We have had no meaningful increase in @NHMRC investment for over a decade. Outstanding science is going unfunded and we are losing world-leading scientists. We call on both sides of politics to support the sector & commit to doubling the @NHMRC budget #auspol #ausvotes2022

Many research-intensive countries including 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇵🇹🇦🇹🇩🇪🇫🇷🇪🇸🇮🇪🇸🇪 have significantly increased💰into #health & #medicalresearch in response to the pandemic In🇦🇺 funding flatlined, success rates ↘️ & the workforce is demoralised… we are falling behind on the world stage #ausvotes22

Excited to share work from my PhD looking at the roles of #presenilins in #microglia here at #ANS2022 Australasian Neuroscience Society (ANS) Australian Dementia EMCR Network AD Mechanisms Laboratory Dementia Australia Curtin University @CHIRI_curtin

A big thank you to Theresa Klemm for having us yesterday! 3 WA PhD students very inspired by WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) Ayeisha Milligan Armstrong Melissa Eccles Amy Woodfield

Feels like a milestone type of day, finished my experiments, cleaned up my desk and now just a little more writing to do and this thing should be phinished!! #phdlife #PhD #ADResearch AD Mechanisms Laboratory @CHIRI_curtin Curtin University
