If you are interested in this work... I am looking for a PhD student to join me at Monash Uni to discover more about atmospheric microbial ecology! If this sounds amazing to you, write me a letter: findaphd.com/phds/project/t…

Vale Professor Robin Warren AC FAA Nobel Laureate (11/6/1937 – 23/7/2024) Robin was a pathologist elected to the Academy in 2006 for the discovery of Helicobacter pylori; the bacterium that causes a range of gastric disorders including peptic ulcers, gastritis and gastric cancer.

New research into hydrogen-using enzymes from the ancient lifeform Archaea, could offer profound insights into the evolution of complex life and shape the future of the hydrogen economy. Dr. Bob Leung from Monash University explains: apacnetwork.com/story/could-an…

We are running a massive online open course on AMR databases starting end of the month. Its completely free, study at your own pace and its ~15 hours overall over the 3 weeks (although you can finish any time in a year). Please spread in your networks! …erences.wellcomeconnectingscience.org/event/antimicr…

Scientists like Prof Gene Tyson FAA (from event partner QUT) is one Fellow taking part in this ceremony today. Gene has pioneered new methods for studying microorganisms that can't be grown in the laboratory—allowing many to be studied for the first time.
