Who has a formula for writing the perfect concluding paragraph? I’ve been trying to write the first sentence for an hour now & can’t get anything down. I’m on Struggle St and browsing for houses. Send help 😫 #phdchat #phdlife

Incredible talk from Michael-Shawn Fletcher at #ESAus21 about how removing Aboriginal Peoples from Country resulted in a drastic increase in catastrophic fires. ‘Wild’ Country is sick Country. google.com.au/amp/s/theconve…

Indigenous knowledge and the persistence of the ‘wilderness’ myth

Aboriginal people view so-called wilderness as sick, neglected land. This runs counter to the view of wilderness as pristine and healthy, which underpins non-Indigenous conservation efforts.

Ready to roll into Day 2 of #ESAus21 wrapped in some #EcologicalFashion alongside my lil’ buddy: a #NorfolkIsland Robin, Petroica multicolor. Join me at 2:41pm AEST in the #Conservation #Ecology session to hear about what’s threatening him and how we’re responding! 🇳🇫

Mental health and PhDs amiright?? For #worldmentalhealthday2021 I thought I'd get a bit real in a Lens article @MonashUni. Thanks to my awesome PhD supervisors for always being supportive and generally epic #phdchat #phdvoice lens.monash.edu/2021/10/14/1…

Deadlines, panic attacks, and the PhD student – Monash Lens

“The submission date was looming, and I had been staunchly ignoring the bubbling magma of terror that was slowly rising within me the past few months.”
