Higher degree by research students in Australia work full-time hours but receive $11.7k below the minimum wage. The Universities Accord recommended that the higher degree by research stipend should be increased to support junior researchers, we are campaigning for that to happen!

Halfway through my placement with the Bioinformatics team at Fraunhofer IZI already! 🔬🧬 Learning so much about transcriptomics for CAR T cell therapy development, and the team has been incredibly welcoming. 🇩🇪 Few more updates over on LinkedIn! ➡️ linkedin.com/posts/khalia-p…

Had such a great time at #PathologyUpdate2025 this weekend thanks to a grant from The Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia! Explored careers in path and adjacent specialties, learnt a lot about the non-coding genome and advanced diagnostics, and met some wonderful new people! 🧬 #pathology #genomics

🤩 If you haven't already, check out this study where Dr. Primer and researchers at Uni of Adelaide explore the role of the PDK4/PDC axis in angiogenesis, the effect of diabetes on its regulation in response to ischemia, and the proangiogenic properties of rHDL! 👏Congratulations
