Only 3 Australian states mention a female scientist's work in their yr 11 and 12 coursework - fuelling the ‘lone male genius’ narrative.
@WomenInSTEMAu: the "narrative that old white men are responsible for all scientific discovery is embarrassingly dated"

I had the opportunity to present some of my PhD research last week at @jcu Inspiration on Tap (alongside @JaelenMyers)! Many thanks to everyone that came out (the night before a public holiday!) to listen to me talk about drones and conservation!

ONE STEP CLOSER🧐🧪🧠: In a new Metallomics article, IsoTropics' Dr Brandon Mahan hypothesizes that a non-invasive early diagnostic for Alzheimer's may be designed from tracking metal isotopes (like potassium) in the bloodstream. @JCUGeoscience @jcu @JCUConnect
11 Jan 2023
New research from a JCU-led study has proposed a hypothesis that higher levels of certain potassium isotopes (atoms) in a person’s bloodstream could be a way of detecting Alzheimer’s Disease much sooner than current methods allow.
