I realize I'm a bit late mentioning this paper, but I just wanted to make sure that everyone reads the new assessment on amphibian declines [1/5]. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

And that's a wrap πŸ’«πŸΈπŸ‘©πŸΌβ€πŸ”¬ After 3 longs years, Friday marked the end of my last experiment of my #PhD πŸ₯Ή I'm not sure what to do without all the #frogs, but if I asked my supervisors I'm sure they'd tell me to get writing πŸ™ˆ

Tune in to @einstein_agogo today to hear me talk about selective breeding, and how we can use it to assist the conservation of some of our most endangered 🐸🐸🐸 πŸ“ΈD.Goodall
Today on @einstein_agogo @3RRRFM at 11am AEST I will be interviewing @MicrobeMik about frogs and @JasmineSchipp (left) and @RenzaS (right) and diabetes. Jasmine is one of our amazing #20phds20mins alumni from last year. Listen via 102.7FM, the 3RRR App or rrr.org.au

My first #publication as a co-author!! πŸ₯ΊπŸ₯³ We FINALLY got Alpine Tree frogs to breed in #captivity 😱 How did we do it? Overwinter the 🐸 at ❄ temperatures, then put them in outdoor mescosms to experience the 🌀 and 🌧 #firstpaper #new #PhD @LA_Brannelly peerj.com/articles/15179/

We got the best news today β¬‡οΈπŸΈπŸ‘ Super excited to see this come to fruition, and to now be able to utilise this amazing resource for more #frog disease research! ✨
I just received the most chunk of data from @genomewarriors. The very first Southern Corroboree frog genome!!!! Getting this genome has been such a long time in the making. Having it should help change the course of the conservation for this highly threatened species. Stay tuned!

I'm excited to announce we have started our first large Bd-challenge study in corroboree frogs. This project has been many years in the making. We will be investigating the genetic basis of immunity in this critically endangered species @OneHealthRes @FVASunimelb @MicrobeMik 🐸🧬
