@lawinnerself @LawUCC @UCC @IrishResearch Such a thought-provoking panel and so many fantastic contributions from the audience!!

[Des Fitzgerald @Des_Fitzgerald]

Hello! We at @UCCRadicalLab are having an event, Radical Futures, in Cork on May 8th and 9th. We've got about 100 participants, 5 plenaries, create & digital performance, a film programme and more - it's free to attend! https://t.co/bYxCEqDhX8

Never thought one of my favourite comedy podcasts would do an episode centred on my niche research interests but here we are.

[Do Go On @DoGoOnPod]

Spooky episode alert! What would happen if a cremator decided to stop cremating and just kept the bodies? In Georgia in the early 2000s, the world found out… This is the Tri-State Crematory Scandal

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

Friendly reminder that the law of trespass applies to ashes disposal.

[Pop Crave @PopCrave]

P!nk is left shocked as fan throws mother’s ashes on-stage: “Step too far”

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

Really enjoyed being a part of this conversation about my two favourite topics: death and Taylor Swift.

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

@hrhgould Love this for you!

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

@captain_stavros @UQ_News @ConversationEDU @UQLaw Yes it is!

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

How can we make burial sustainable for future generations? @hrhgould and I propose 4 solutions to Australia's cemetery space crisis in our article out in @ConversationEDU today #AusDeath

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

Really looking forward to this event today! Posthumous chatbots, mind uploading, immortal avatars... the digital makes death very complicated!

[The Centre for Digital Cultures & Societies UQ @DGTL_CulturesUQ]

Registrations have opened for our Death in Digital Society event happening on the 3rd of May, with @DesignAndDeath @rebeccalush_ and @6CLR406 sharing their thoughts on death studies, law and technology. https://t.co/8K8PLyv34y

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

@DrMaryClary Looks amazing!

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

@EdinaRl @themrityu @JoshuaDMShaw @lilianedwards Sounds fascinating! Where should I keep an eye out for this one?

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

Excited to see new natural burial options coming to Queensland!!

[7NEWS Wide Bay @7NewsWideBay]

Fraser Coast locals will soon have the option to say goodbye to their loved-ones in a more natural way. A new cemetery for eco-burials is set to open early next year, the first of its kind in regional Queensland. https://t.co/kDhhmxW7P8 @ha_teya #7NEWS

@DeathRef I'm very sorry John. Sending you much love.

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

@rebeccalush_ Niche but so true.

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

@CosettePaneque Pat Jalland's book 'Australian Ways of Death' is an excellent resource on this!

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

In a three-day conference covering all aspects of death and dying, it's the animal death panel that is leaving no dry eyes in the room! #redesigndeathcare

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

Specimens can act as a tangible representation of death and can help localise grief - fantastic to hear from @rebeccalush_ from the Intergrated Pathology Learning Centre #redesigndeathcare

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

How do we design for those grieving online? Loved hearing from @DesignAndDeath at #redesigndeathcare

[Dr Kate Falconer @6CLR406]

Can we separate the coronial from the colonial? Great panel on medico-legal investigations at #redesigndeathcare
