Can AI help save our reefs? 🤖🪸 Dr Lucille Chapuis developed an AI-based approach to analyse 144 hours of underwater recordings, uncovering a "universal symphony" of fish calls. A massive leap forward for global biodiversity monitoring! Full story 👉bit.ly/4al5Fd9 @latrobe

It’s been great to present our ongoing research on #gazanias at the @theGRDC #Research #Updates in #Adelaide today. Lots of great interactions and discussions focussed on #sustainable #grain production in Australia. Looking forward to presenting this work at the #Waikerie Updates tomorrow and in #Bendigo later this month. If you’re dealing with #weedy #gazanias reach out to discuss ways we can collaborate. Here is the link to full paper if you’re keen to learn more: lnkd.in/gzTBKWa8 Thanks for the support @theGRDC and @SABE_latrobe. @latrobe @WeedSmartAU @society_weed

🚨 Game-changer for water safety: La Trobe researchers just developed a portable biosensor that detects toxic "forever chemicals" (PFAS) on-site - no lab needed. 15,000+ synthetic chemicals. One device. Faster testing for contaminated water, especially in remote areas. The future of environmental monitoring is here💧 Read the full study 👇 shorturl.at/t2vcc @LIMSLTU @latrobe @LTUresearchers

Record VTAC offers for La Trobe 🎉 1,365 offers in January Round 1, taking total offers since November to 6,968 (up 4 per cent). Health courses continue to lead across our metro and regional campuses. Read more: bit.ly/3NfzMek @latrobe @LTUresearchers

@a1bajwa @AIPS_science Congratulations! Very well deserved! 🥂

Feeling YOUNG, TALL and PROUD! I have been named one of the #Young #Tall #Poppy #Award winners in Victoria this year (#YTP25). This is a flagship award hosted by the Australian Institute of Policy and Science (@AIPS_science) nationwide. This is really special for me as the award not only recognises the research #excellence but also admires the research #impact and commitment to #communicating science to the wider community. This further ignites my passion to study and raise awareness on management of #weeds and #invasive plants to help protect and sustain our #primary_industries and #environment. I'm thankful to #AIPS for this great recognition and @latrobe, @Hort_Au, @theGRDC, and my wonderful #colleagues and #research_team for supporting my work. #YoungTallPoppy #scienceeducation #engagement #impact #weedscience #biosecurity @SABE_latrobe

🚀 Launched last week: the ARC Research Hub for Molecular Biosensors at Point-of-Use (MOBIUS). Led by @latrobe with 5 unis + 20+ industry partners, MOBIUS will drive biosensor innovation, advanced manufacturing & industry impact. 👉bit.ly/4fzl1wK @LIMSLTU @latrobe @LTUresearchers

Great to have @conncharlotte1 from @RMIT to come to the MAPP seminar @SABE_latrobe @latrobe talking about #lipid #LNP

🚨What if we could bottle the benefits of exercise... to treat cancer? Congrats to @PamaliFonsekaa who has awarded a 2025 Young Scientist Program Fellowship 👏Her research shows plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs) from active mice slowed aggressive breast cancer. A breakthrough with global impact. 56 awardees. 17 countries. One of them is from right here @SABE_latrobe @LIMSLTU @latrobe . 👩‍🔬💥 RT to celebrate @LTUresearchers that’s changing how we think about treatment. #FAOBMB2025
