The State of Environment Report assesses the health of Australia’s environment from the tropics to the poles.
The report's three chief authors, @DrEmmaLJohnston (@Sydney_Uni), Ian Cresswell Terri Janke (@UNSW), provide an overview of its findings. bit.ly/3yW9Cm6
We need your help! Do you want to use #genomics, and are interested in #conservation? Please answer our anonymous short survey on sequencing and compute access across the globe.

DNA samples from 21 night parrots ready for genome sequencing!! This slow burn project has been supercharged thanks to @AGRF_genomics@BioplatformsAus@ThreatenedSpGen - samples from WA, SA, and QLD. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
King Island scrubtits are among Australia’s most endangered birds - @CratesRoss & @CatMYoung are doing a genetic study to identify new approaches to protecting them!

🎉GOOD NEWS STORY
Five years ago there were just 17 birds in the wild. In December, 70 birds were counted at Melaleuca, breaking the previous year's record of 51 birds👇
