🎇PhD Opportunity with Population Biology & Genomics at Curtin!🎇
Project: Understanding animal dispersal and habitat connectivity using genomic data
Supervisor: Dr Brenton von Takach
Details: https://t.co/h8vq2deXPM
About the group: https://t.co/1Ooq2B2Ns1
Please share!
I have a funded PhD project for someone!
It's a good mix of landscape ecology and biology with cool fieldwork, and will build skills in genomics and data analysis. Focal species are native and invasive inverts.
Please tell anyone who might be interested!

🎇The Population Biology and Genomics Group led by @benflips and @certhionyx is hiring!🎇We're looking for a Post Doc to lead modelling work on containment and eradication of pest species. See here: https://t.co/73dNice5h5. More info on the PBG Group here: https://t.co/1Ooq2B2Ns1
CONGRATULATIONS @CurtinEandA PhD candidate Helen Coleman! ! 🎉 🏆 🎉Helen was awarded the Humanities Prize @ the 2023 #Curtinnovation Awards for her development of Marri Gum Dye- a natural dye extract from the Western Australian Marri gum. https://t.co/usS3afN0hd via @YouTube
🌱📰New paper led by @m_just_ on germination physiology of Cochlospermum fraseri (Bixaceae).
The authors aimed to determine how seed dormancy might be alleviated, and conditions that support germination to inform the use of this species in restoration. https://t.co/YaAHkECS6D
📚 Myself and @benflips have some exciting PhD opportunities available in the field of genomics and spatial ecology. Please share widely!

Recently reintroduced numbats going strong at Secret Rocks - adults settling in well and females with pouch young - the first numbats born on the Eyre Peninsula in probably over 150 years @TSCommissioner
fabulous to see Matuwa recognised as a jointly managed national park with the local Martu people.
it's a place close to my heart as I spent 7+ years working there, reintroducing bilby, mala, possums, boodies, golden bandicoots and shark bay mice. a 📸 #wildoz thread
Our Centre Director @S_van_Leeuwen recently co-authored an article arguing for species conservation through collaborative management that empowers Indigenous stewardship of Country.

New @CurtinUni-led #research has found #iDNA collected from flies has been used to track the movements of Australia's native species across the WA wheatbelt, with hopes to improve conservation efforts in the region. https://t.co/azPyMdYvSA

Our Science Committee member @SarahMLegge recently told @abcnews only about 15% of the animals killed by roaming pet cats are brought back home.
We never see most of the impacts that our pet cats have on our local native wildlife.
