I am at Parliament House & happy to be representing the Australian Society for Biochemistry & Molecular Biology @asbmbaus.bsky.social at #SMP2026. I am looking forward to connecting with politicians & getting a different perspective on communicating the impact of science @unswbabs.bsky.social
We’ve been spoiled with lovely weather & quality science at @lornegenome.bsky.social this year, continuing this morning with Session 11 (Novel Approaches to Study the Genome) & then the Julian Wells Medallist presentation. Hope everyone has rested up after the dinner! See you 9am! #LorneGenome2026

It is a glorious (and warm!) day in Clovelly today and I am excited to be spending the day with my @unswbabs.bsky.social colleagues for our BABS Research Day to discuss research excellence and plan our research strategy.
It’s another beautiful morning in Lorne, with blue skies & kangaroos. Highs of 33 degrees & afternoon rain/thunderstorms are predicted, but it will be cool & dry in the @lornegenome.bsky.social Heritage Ballroom for Session 7: Epigenetics & Chromatin at 9am. Looking forward to it! #LorneGenome2026
Day 2 of #SMP2026 started with an excellent parliamentary forum & now we have a #UNSW Sydney sponsored session on Science in the Media. Thank you to the Australian Society for Biochemistry & Molecular Biology @asbmbaus.bsky.social for the opportunity to be here. @unswbabs.bsky.social
Good morning @lornegenome.bsky.social delegates! In case you missed watching the sunrise on the beach this morning (with galahs!), I’m happy to report that today we have a forecast of blue skies, highs of 31 degrees & some great science, kicking off with @odomlab.bsky.social at 9am. #LorneGenome2026
Thank you to the @anzscdb.bsky.social NSW Branch Committee for an excellent symposium today! I was grateful for the invitation to share our work & am delighted for Sonia Goozee who won the best ECR talk award! #anzscdbnsw2025 @biologists.bsky.social @unswbabs.bsky.social @merlincrossley.bsky.social
Belated congratulations to 2025 Honours students Ziggi Zikmann & Ishara Maharjan for submitting their theses last week! I am very proud of your achievements. And thank you to the team for finding a way to make the process of pressing "submit" on a computer a celebration! @unswbabs.bsky.social
