An outstanding digital journey with ABC to an ephemeral West Australian river in a rare life-giving flood. I love seeing the community reaction! Well worth a look, and you won't even get wet! abc.net.au/news/2024-09-1…

@KathyBelov we are Profs of bilby poo! Read our piece in the Conservation today on how a reference genome is the building block for new methods to help save a species!! Shout out to @persoonia & team who worked on the new scat method. @Sydney_Science @EBPgenome @Biodivcouncil
The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand@ConversationEDU

We've just published the largest ever marsupial genome – all 3.6 billion pieces of it. Together with Indigenous rangers, we're applying two-way science to better protect bilbies.

📝New quoll paper is out! 🧬 Declining populations of northern quolls will lose genetic diversity through time. If we strategically conserve at least eight populations across Australia, we can prevent the loss of > 90 % of that diversity! doi.org/10.1016/j.bioc…

Bonus, Western Australia is an incredible place to do biodiversity research. So many amazing landscapes you could be working in - think Southwest WA, Pilbara & Kimberley biodiversity hotspots. Come for the biodiversity, stay for the genetics!!
