It was indeed the presentation that stopped the nation 👏. Excellent presentation by @_madiobrien reporting on her Honours work evaluating informal education programs along the #GreatSouthernReef












PhD opportunities: The @Timothy_D_Clark Lab at @Deakin University is advertising two PhD projects looking at "Fish eco-physiology in a changing world". The students will be based at the Waurn Ponds campus and Queenscliff Marine Station. More info @ goo.gl/moGD7i

Excited to see our paper now out in @AJEnviroEd! We analysed 100 children's picture books about the ocean and show how they link to the Australian science curriculum to encourage #marinescience being taught more in our schools. doi.org/10.1017/aee.20…
