We are one of the teams who secured an ARC Discovery Project grant funding (equivalent of NSF in the US)! 😃🎉🎆
Thanks so much to my team members Haibo Yu, Nikolas Johnston and Martina Sanderson-Smith for their hard work.
I feel for the 9/10 applications not funded. 🙁 We need more science funding!
Our school is hiring!

We academics live for days like these!
Yesterday was the graduation of my PhD student Jordan Nicholls. A truly proud moment for me as his primary supervisor.
I wish him the best in his future career.
Others in the picture are to follow, some of them quite soon (already writing their theses!).
One of my favorite days of the year is the group photo day. Here's this year's photo, with two of my students perfectly (!) blended in from the last year's picture.
As I always say, I feel extremely fortunate and privileged to be working with such dedicated and nice scientists. 😀
I attended the Australian Cell Cycle, DNA Repair and Telomere Meeting for the first time, and now I wish I could have attended it earlier.
Thanks much to the organisers and especially to @genomestability.bsky.social for putting such a nice meeting together.
I am looking forward to the future ones!
Congratulations to my PhD student Jhonnatan Reales-Gonzalez who received the 'Best Poster by a Student' award at the CryOZ 2025 (Australian National Cryo-EM Special Interest Group Symposium). 👏🏼 🎉

We need to be careful!
Being descendants of the British Empire, and most already fans of the Royal Family, Aussies may be closer to going back to an authoritarian regime than other countries. 🙁
