OzGrav PhD students are the heart of our Education & Outreach Programs. The Mission Gravity school program allows them to engage with high school students and guide them through activities designed to help them learn about stellar evolution, neutron stars, and black holes!

Zuzana Slavkovska and @L_J_Big of @ourANU enjoyed getting hands on with the mighty SABRE South vessel, currently located @Swinburne's Wantirna campus. The scientists prepared the vessel for when it is located 1km underground. View thread for more pics and details. @arc_gov_au

Excited to be back at Stawell Seconday, running sessions as part of the @ARC_DMPP Regional Partner Schools Program! Today, students in Years 8 & 9 learned how gravity can help to map the Dark Matter in the universe! Thanks to Han from @UniMelb for helping present!

The @qdmroadtrip was a wonderful opportunity for researchers and students. “I had good conversations with girls of different ages about their career dreams. This was really fulfilling," says @ARC_EQUS member Kerstin Beer. leadertoday.com.au/news/2023…@ARC_DMPP @Aus_ScienceWeek

So, this research is outside my usual bubble, but is something I’m incredibly passionate about: #ScienceEducation and #WomenInSTEM We did a study and found a clear gender bias in senior high school science curricula across Australia. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…
