The first paper of my PhD is out! Want to know how trends in habitat extent can be used to guide restoration? Thread⏬ Paper: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… *TLDR in the first tweet of the thread for all you busy folks.*

It. Is. Done. I just submitted my PhD thesis🎉 4 years, ~60k words, 100s of thousands of lines of R code, and lots of pretty maps and it's done. Feeling very blessed to have been part of such a great lab group at @EcoGeneticsLab. Obligatory favourite fieldwork pics below...

A massive congratulations to, soon to be Dr, @Morgan_R_Ellis in submitting his PhD last week! If you're up here at #AMSA22 and want to hear about what the invasive Northern Pacific Seastar eat, go to the Mossman room at 3pm today!

Postdoc opportunity in the @EcoGeneticsLab at Deakin University, Warrnambool campus! Aimed at resolving patterns of biological stock structure among Southern Ocean crab fisheries: careers.pageuppeople.com/949/cw/en/job/…

New publication focusing on the effects of climate change on the biology of marine organisms through the trophic interactions. by @OwenJHolland, @mary_a_young @DrCraigSherman and many others. @EcoGeneticsLab @DeakinCIE @deakinresearch @DeakinSEBE marinemapping.org/single-post/oc…

❗️❗️❗️First lead authorship alert❗️❗️❗️ I am extremely excited to share my first lead authorship on a paper, as well as the first research chapter of my PhD, is to be published in Global Change Biology. Enjoy! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

Despite being a marine biologist, I don’t make a half bad botanist 😏 Field trip last week in Grampians National Park identifying candidate species for environment v genotype association analyses. The biodiversity there absolutely floored me @EcoGeneticsLab

🌊🌱Interested in seagrass restoration? We are seeking a PhD candidate to join our @zosteration team!

My first first-author paper is out 🎉🎉🎉 A few years in the making but a fantastic experience nonetheless. Massive shout out to the gang at @ProjectSeagrass, especially @LCullenUnsworth for hours of discussion despite the time difference 😴 frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

@Morgan_R_Ellis will also be there to discuss his work enhancing detection of prey items in stomach content analyses⭐️🧬 #VicBioCon21

Listen in this afternoon to @OliverDalby1 present his work on remote sensing of seagrass ecosystems 🌱🌊 in the Banksia Theatre #VicBioCon21

According to @yimeitan from @deakin, seagrasses are super awesome and super important... so she's looking at ways to help them thrive. Love the work! As a diver, I couldn't agree more @Zosteration @EcoGeneticsLab @VicBioCon #VicBioCon21

@OwenJHolland from @EcoGeneticsLab tells us about his work assessing blacklip abalone's vulnerability to algal loss linked to #climatechange. #VcBioCon21 @VicBioCon

We're excited to be at @VicBioCon today 🥳 Come check out @OwenJHolland's work on abalone diets and @yimeitan's work on seagrass restoration in the Acacia Theatre this morning! #VicBioCon21 #ClimateChange

Happy #WorldWetlandsDay2021! Check out our stunning study site Walker Swamp Restoration Reserve. Djab wurrung Country.

We're seeking a #PhD candidate to join our team! This project will develop restoration and recovery methodology for intertidal #seagrass meadows in Western Port, Australia 🌱🌊🤿 More info: tinyurl.com/yy78yobk

What better way to start #NationalScienceWeek than with a new publication under our belts! Working with various AU, NZ, and international #seagrass #restoration practitioners, we reviewed the region's restoration attempts to date, and highlighted the many successes achieved.
