Friday night science fun in Canberra with Prof Alice Roberts💙 🧬

I may not have achieved much but there is now one more field station in the world with proper bathroom facilities for female staff & I’m proud of that! 🌾 🇲🇽 #WomeninCropScience

Great to see this work out TheorApplGenet. Analysis of wheat flowering time over 6 field seasons #phenologyisfun Special thanks to James Cockram for persistence in getting this out!

Congratulations Rosa! Great to see your work on phenotyping durum yield response under drought stress out now!

Farewell Chava! It’s been awesome to have Salvador Carranza from Mexico’s national wheat program INIFAP with us for a research exchange. He’s been working across a range of wheat & barley experiments in the lab & glasshouse ourANU 🇲🇽 🇦🇺

Really excited to be part of the 2025-2026 #SuperstarsOfSTEM cohort! Delighted to join this amazing group to further promote the important role of women & under-represented groups in STEM: scienceandtechnologyaustralia.org.au/list/2025-supe…

💡Interested in new crop breeding technologies? 🧬 Come and join us ourANU to accelerate plant synbio as part of a new multi-million $$ Australian government investment in crop transformation, gene editing & synbio applications. 🌱 Exciting times ahead! jobs.anu.edu.au/jobs/head-of-a…

Looking forward to hosting an #IWD2025 event this Friday to celebrate the women shaping the future of agriculture from new tech solutions through to provision of finance & how you can support & join them Agrifood Innovation Institute ARC Training Centre for Future Crops Development events.humanitix.com/you-can-do-tha…

An incredible agrifood farewell lunch Agrifood Innovation Institute. It has been wonderful to spend the past 15 months at ANU working with amazing colleagues on exciting new science & more. Looking forward to joining CSIRO Agriculture & Food later this week!
