Was such an honour to be asked to be part of the @EMBLAustralia program today! Had a lot of fun sharing some of my experiences - was also blown away by the insightful questions from the audience!! Thanks all

Last speaker of the day is @KathLocock from CSIRO 🌱 talking about unlocking the Potential of Plant-Based Medicines 💊. It’s important to acknowledge the First Nations and their rich traditional knowledge, stories and history.

“Science can’t be demure, it has to be out in the community” and “we need to do everything to protect trust in science” - sprinkled with a little awe and wonder!
Thanks @CSIRO Doug Hilton for such an inspiring Thomas Baker oration speech today! @RotaryMelbourne

What an amazing launch for the Tidal Moon doco, Saltwater Stories!! 🎉
Humbled to be asked by Michael Wear to be in a @CSIRO panel with @DrMegsSebben, Brett Molony & @PerkinsComms Kevin Pfleger on how Indigenous & western science will deliver his vision

I'm so privileged to work with the Indigenous business, Outback Academy Australia, to blend Indigenous and western science to bring the ancient wisdom of traditional medicines into modern day products! 🌿👩🔬🧴
Through our CSIRO Kick-Start program, OAA is working with our Biomedical Manufacturing research team. They’re characterising & analysing the chemical makeup of a botanical used in traditional medicine & developing methods to effectively harness its bioactives for use in skincare.

CSIRO partnered with Bio-Gene Technology to develop an insecticide derived from Australian eucalyptus, targeting pests and disease-spreading mosquitoes while being safer for beneficial insects. 🚜 buff.ly/47DzCCx

The Australian first nations people are the first scientists on the land. There are so much we could learn from them. Dr Katherine shared how her role has allowed her to combine traditional and western science knowledge. She also shared her aspiring career pathway

Was honoured to spend the day on #Bunurong Country today with some of my favourite people from the CSIRO Victorian Indigenous Engagement Comittee at the Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association learning from Uncle Peter. Just what my soul needed!

A Bio-Gene-ius new insecticide. 🐛
When @biogenetechltd told us they'd found a native plant which could fight pests and have minimal impact on helpful insects like bees, we were excited to team up.

Could you ask for a better quote from @biogenetechltd!?
“Given CSIRO’s stellar reputation, state-of-the-art labs and top-tier scientists, we knew they were the perfect partner”
Congrats to Adam Meyer & the team!!
Thanks @DrMegsSebben & @csiro #kickstart for making it possible!

Great insights from an amazingly wise women! Lots of areas we can focus on to improve out national science landscape!
Outdated research assessment metrics drive inefficient behaviour & reduce mobility between industry & academia. We must modernise metrics & increase R&D investment so researchers & institutions aren't focused on chasing outdated metrics to secure funding. theguardian.com/australia-ne…
