If you’ve ever thought why is there not a better treatment for x, y, or z or been thankful there was a good treatment option it’s because the investment in research was made. Aus has the minds, the skills, the technology - we just don’t have the money #SaveOzScience #research

Prof Fiona Wood AM, research pioneer & @TheASMR1 medallist, delivering the @PressClubAust address, on the funding crisis: “I live with the fact that I can’t sleep at night because I haven’t got enough funding for my junior researchers, and where am I going to get it from?- (1/8)

Important debate happening in Australia about research funding. A country that doesn’t invest in research (in science and social science and the arts by the way) will inevitably become a country in relative decline. The 21st century will be the century of knowledge.

Thanks @liammannix for the article, great to include those wise words by @ProfBrianCox in @QandA and, always, huge thanks @ARC_Tracker for being the voice of Australian scientists. Research is KEY for our societies and it needs to be appreciated & properly funded by governments

What a fantastic research collaboration! Can’t wait to see this tech develop further, it’s desperately needed for #OvarianCancer. #research #biotech #ovariancancerawareness #medtech #AusResearch

The symptoms of ovarian cancer are commonly misdiagnosed as gastrointestinal or bowel problems, leading to high rates of late diagnosis in women. In a new @nhmrc project, our aim is to create a device that could detect ovarian cancer before symptoms arise rmit.edu.au/news/all-news/…

So thankful to the @VCCCAlliance for giving us the opportunity to hear from Prof. Harold Varmus, took me to the end of the session to get over my nerves to ask a question (went over-time!) but Prof. Varmus was gracious and very giving of his time and words of wisdom #Inspired

@MadsKicksCancer Glad you enjoyed it @MadsKicksCancer. Also never realised how cool your handle is 😎 Also I’m presuming you fall into the ‘doing Twitter during an incubation’ category 🤔 ha ha

Finally my model organism bio side of twitter has crossed with my scifi nerd side of twitter to create this beautiful monstrosity of a crossover tweet

So if you’re in science & need a bit of comic relief right now I’d just like to remind everyone there is a twitter account ran by an electric eel - its tank is wired to a 💻 and every time it discharges electricity it equals tweets like ZAP! or BUZZ! etc. 😂⚡️😎@EelectricMiguel

Science is getting us out of the pandemic, and science and technology is what is needed for our future yet our government has done everything in its power to decimate the sector as we head into a future that is increasingly more reliant on it 🧐#auspol #ClimateAction #STEM
Prof. Jamie Rossjohn@Jamie_Rossjohn

It is probable science will get us through… but it is unlikely to be Australian-based science due to the lack of investment in science by successive Australian governments
