Iโm so thrilled to share @vicgillman.bsky.social first first-author paper just published in Conservation Genetics ๐๐งฌ๐ฆช (not a FW mussel). This is just the tip of the iceberg of whatโs to come from Victoria - stay tuned!

If you like what you see, Iโve started documenting my favourite captures in a dedicated #instagram! ๐
Very happy to share I passed my PhD viva with no corrections on climate vulnerability in freshwater pearl mussels ๐๐
Thanks to my supervisors @molluscular.bsky.social @lancasterlt.bsky.social & Vicky Pritchard and examiners @fishyomics.bsky.social @gretabocedi.bsky.social for an engaging discussion!
Submitted my PhD. Absolutely stoked.
Thank you to everyone who supported me and to those I met along the way. Itโs been a journey.
And thanks, of course, to these gremlins.
Time to crack on with the remaining manuscripts. Bring on the viva!
Found a random โGarden Birdsโ book, and this has to be my newest favourite house sparrow fact
