@jscamac @CEBRA_UoM @DAFFgov @BioSci_UniMelb @UniMelb Well done!

I am deeply humbled that myself and the teaching team at @CEBRA_UoM received a @DAFFgov Australian Biosecurity Award for Excellence in education for the work we've done in developing a practical postgraduate biosecurity subject @BioSci_UniMelb @UniMelb agriculture.gov.au/about/news/aba….

Well deserved for leading such an important and popular subject (NRMT90002), good job @jscamac @BioSci_UniMelb @SciMelb

Nice perspective piece on our recent @PLOSBiology paper by @aquabolina and @TheLadybirdman journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…

@EcologIan It doesn't "know" anything. But it can draft a letter of recommendation excellently, proofread... It's a language bot. Give it language tasks.

Our latest paper on Wolbachia mosquitoes is out now @PLOSPathogens! A collaboration betwen @PEARG_Lab @BioSci_UniMelb @CSIRO @Cambridge_Uni @KACST journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…
