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. https://t.co/kawOTsnnOT

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. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[Prof Carolyn Hogg @HoggCarolyn]

Very excited to be helping with this project. This is what @ThreatenedSpGen was set up to achieve - genetic resources for some of our most threatened species that have never had resources before!! @CratesRoss @CatMYoung @teamswiftparrot @BioplatformsAus @Sydney_Science

[Threatened Species Initiative @ThreatenedSpGen]

Our wonderful Program Manager is the @EBPgenome member of the week!

[Earth BioGenome Project 🌍 @EBPgenome]

Meet Sarah Richmond, who serves as the General Manager of Science Programs at @BioplatformsAus and Project Manager for the @ThreatenedSpeciesGen.

🎉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👇
