The Australian Functional Fungi initiative request for partnerships is now open. We are seeking to create foundational biomolecular data resources to fast-track knowledge and innovation of Australian 🍄! Information through the link below, get in touch! https://t.co/3Qw9H5YzQ3
PhD scholarships in Computational Biology for international applicants still open (deadline: 31st of August) - Contact me to know more - Taiyang and Loong PhD scholarships https://t.co/92JsdgH5iH
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.

Do you have an innovative project that could be accelerated by sequencing? Our @GeneticsAus Student Research Grant Scheme is now open to all postgrad members. Sponsored by @illumina & @ramacgenomics and valued at over $15k!
See https://t.co/pcQ8QZwdCC to apply by 5pm Dec 1st.
We are looking for a Bioinformatics Application Specialist – ABLeS Program, to join the team. Collaborate with high profile research groups across Australia to support the production of valuable new data assets. Based @MelBioInf Apply by 5 Dec 2021: https://t.co/XOQlamPXBz
We are excited to announce the first complete genome sequencing and assembly of the southern marsupial mole by @aj_pask @sfberg @OMGenomes@BioplatformsAus @CharlieFeigin @BioSci_UniMelb N50 20Mb & BUSCO recovery of 93%. We can't wait to learn more about this enigmatic marsupial.
It’s a great day. Our second southern brown bandicoot in our long term research sites this year, and it’s a mum!!
We have not had a SBB on any of our sites since 2013, so this second one is great news indeed.
Hope you day is as good as our field team is having.
Ok, when was the last time @abcnews had two lead stories about the conservation of native Australian rodents, on the same day?! I'll say never, and hence that this is a great day!
Amazing effort underpinning the brand new publication led by @Emily_Roycroft and supported through our @OMGenomes initiative. This project investigated the rapid decline and extinction of Australian rodents, links to the publication available in Emily's thread
Out today in @PNASNews! Our paper on the rapid collapse of extinct Australian rodents since European colonisation + resurrection of extinct Gould’s mouse https://t.co/DsroEO41BU Big news for #ozrodents! @Dr_AnnaM @bertieportela @MVMammals@OMGenomes@BioPlatformsAus A thread /1
The call for abstracts for the 2021 #AusMammals Conference is now open!
The abstract submission process as well as Presentation Guidelines can be found at https://t.co/K2IIWAH2io
The deadline for Abstract submission is 30th of July.
