Despite a long history of world-leading discoveries, Australia's science system is going backwards – at the very moment the rest of the world is moving forward, fast.
That's why we've launched BACK AUSTRALIA'S ABILITY, a call to every Australian to do exactly that.
The outer membrane is the interface through which Gram-negative bacteria - a broad classification of organisms including \textit{Escherichia coli} and a number of deadly pathogens - interact with the ...

Like it or lump it, the College of Experts is probably set to remain a staple of ARC's system for some time yet.
Most who serve on it report it's worth their time & effort, both as a service to the research community & for their proposal-writing abilities.
So, maybe consider nominating for it?

Tuvalu is building new land to hold back rising sea levels, but the majority of its people are applying to relocate to Australia. As they do, many are confronting a disturbing question.
#DECRA applicants, the rejoinder period begins on Monday (25 May).
You'll get reports from "detailed assessors" – people in your general field, but not necessarily experts on your specific research.
Reports will appear in your RMS portal, normally around 11am Canberra time (but it varies).
