Thanks to our Danish colleagues for the invitation to share ideas for the remediation of oil spill sites in Greenland and Antarctica, and the tour of beautiful Frederiksberg Castle! #acleanerAntarctica #bioremediation @AusAntarctic

“I promise you, there are no projects in Antarctica where the equipment works perfectly”
Anyone have any great “MacGyver” type quick fix stories for equipment in the field?

When the whole is greater than the sum of its parts...Working on what we do and where we do it takes highly skilled & diverse teams - scientists, engineers, trades and personnel from Australia and beyond. Chapeau 🎩 @AusAntarctic @ferrari_belinda @unimelb @queensu @Reichman_Lab

The Brazilian govt. has granted R$ 2M (≈ US$ 533K) to equip scientific labs on the new Ferraz station, to be inaugurated in Jan 2020. Altogether, the new base will have 16 labs maintained by the Ministry of Science & Technology and one by @fiocruz_en: mctic.gov.br/mctic/opencms/s…

Snowy and wild #wildernessfirstaid training on Kunanyi/Mount Wellington with members of the @AusAntarctic human impacts and remediation team. Great opportunity to practice a massive range of realistic “scenarios” for both work and play. Great fun too.

Understanding and mitigating (#remediaton) the risk of contaminants under the unique conditions of the Antarctic requires a multi-disciplinary approach. Read more here on the collaborative research between human impacts & remediation scientists at @AusAntarctic and @Rmit.

Check out the latest of the Australian Antarctic Magazine. See what happens when geotechnical engineers, environmental scientists and doctors from @AusAntarctic collaborate to use x-rays in a new and novel way to monitor remediation technologies in the #Antarctic.

I find it interesting, in this article, how a part time #STEM position after having children is somehow seen as leaving. Having access to a part time academic position for the last 3 years has helped me to stay in #STEM. Next year my aim is to return to full time.
