Had a blast presenting at #AusEvo2023 in captivating Adelaide today! My first one and hopefully not the last. Sharing the initial results of my fellowship in Australia among many other amazing talks was a rewarding experience. Australasian Evolution Society

🔬🐦Opportunity Alert! 🐭🧬 #USF undergrads, get ready to dive into the world of #DiseaseEcology at the Marty Martin! We're looking for passionate students to explore the relations among immunity & the environment with house sparrows & white-footed mice bit.ly/48rXKZt

Starting this year in a great way! In this study, we evaluated the immune and endocrine effects induced by the bacteria Aeromonas hydrophila in amphibians! Huge thanks to all the collaborators!!

📢#Herp faculty! 🐸🐢🐍🦎🐊 It’s time for a new spreadsheet to help get the word out about herp-focused labs that are recruiting students and postdocs for 2025-26! Faculty, use this form to advertise positions: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… #gradschool #postdoc

Dear colleagues, Please help me to share this opportunity at the Biosciences Institute! Thank you!! fapesp.br/oportunidades/…

My first day City of Edmonton University of Alberta - here to create a Centre for Open Science & Synthesis in #Ecology & #Evolution. Looking for ~5 postdocs to join me in establishing the centre. Please apply - i-deel.org/opportunities.… Please RT

Feeling grateful and relieved after 5 weeks of intense fieldwork in the Northern Territory! I’ll miss the country vibes, the wildlife, the parks, and the team at the field station. Back to Sydney with a buuunch of samples and can’t wait to see what comes next!

I'm thrilled to announce that the first preprint from the Amphibian Genomics Consortium (AGC) is now available on bioRxiv. This paper was greatly improved by the contributions of the AGC's diverse members 🐸🧬 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Day two of #GSA2024 is in full swing! Here’s our Conference photo from this morning and please share your dinner photos with us Genetics AustralAsia ! 🧬

Cane toads are definitely not Australia’s favorite animal, but their high invasive potential is amazing to study genetics, evolution, and adaptation. Or at least that’s what I tried to sell at #GSA2024 this week. Do you think they bought it?

Could you boil down your PhD thesis to a one-minute speech? Well, I accepted the challenge by UNSW Science and was very honored to be awarded with the best presentation of UNSW Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences! Wonderful event and such a fun way to get to know what other people are studying.

If you’re in Borneo for WCH10, stop by Great Hall C at 3:15pm for a half-an-hour speech on toad immunity, as I will be presenting my two talks back to back in a row! 🐸🧬🇲🇾

📣 GSA Student Research Grant Scheme - 2024 Applications now open for our sequencing grants (valued at $15k) to support postgraduate research, sponsored by Illumina Ramaciotti Centre for Genomics AgResearch CLOSE 30th September 2024 Further details👇 genetics.org.au/student-grants/

So happy to announce that I was awarded a Holsworth Wildlife Research Endowment grant from Ecological Society of Australia to fund my research on immune traits of invasive cane toads in Australia. Thanks to my supervisor Lee Rollins and Dr. Bill Holsworth for the support to my PhD research!
