I implore the State Govt of Victoria to reconsider their funding of medical research. Such great medical research is carried out daily by our remarkable men and women researchers into diseases which affect us all. Together we can make a difference but not without Govt support

As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at

Fantastic collaboration on protein N-terminal modification fate - great work from all contributors!

Please join us - application will close on the 22nd of September for this 4-years Fellowship opportunity for Female A/Prof who are working in the space of Molecular Science ;-) #WomeninSTEM #WomenInSTEMM

The real-world performance of System 03 during past 12 months has demonstrated that the Great Pacific Garbage Patch can be cleaned in 10 years’ time, at a cost of 7.5 billion dollars.

For the first time, we can put a price tag on cleaning up the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. We now call upon the world - governments, companies, individuals - to make this cleanup happen.

Our lab’s first foray into immunology examines how immunosuppressive CTLA4-Ig therapies like abatacept release PD-L1 from CD80. We show this effect depends on antigen-presenting cell surface CD80:PD-L1 ratio, and can reinforce T cell inhibition.

Tremendous effort led by co-first authors Ethan Oxley (Monash University Monash Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences Translational Medicine at Monash University ACBD) and Nadia Kershaw Nadia Kershaw (WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute)). Thanks to co-authors including Cynthia Louis, Ian Wicks, Nicholas Huntington Stephanie Wiranata Dr Emily Edwards Meredith O'Keeffe

The (amount of) trash we pull out from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and rivers every day is scary.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

Cleaning up Kingston’s mangroves, one step at a time. 🇯🇲 Following the Great Mangrove Cleanup organized by our local partners, another 8238 kg / 18,164 lb of waste no longer harms the vital ecosystems of Kingston’s mangroves.

Australian #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #mecfs researchers could only dream of this kind of money 🥺 but some are including ppl with long Còvid in their studies, so maybe one day we'll all benefit. Hayley Gleeson Evan Young NHMRC @racgp Mark Butler MP Ged Kearney Dr Monique Ryan MP
