@zofiology Holy crap these are awesome. Do you ship to Australia?!?

@georgiedent @RACSurgeons @ProfJArcher @mp911586 @RuthBollard They did this to the GP exams in WA at the start of this year due to a COVID scare, then hastily put them back on after vulnerable doctors in training reached out to the AMA I believe. It was an absolute mess that had a huge metal health impact on young doctors.

@michelle_voyer @UOWGC @OceanNexusCtr @uowresearch Congratulations @michelle_voyer this sounds amazing!

To achieve sustainable and responsible fisheries, we need to increase representation and elevate voices from SIDS and LEDCs - @minderoo invites you to join the conversation at World Fisheries Congress 2021 by supporting online registration. Apply below @FAOfish @Manu_FAO #WFC2021

Please, consider contributing to this if you can. Also, do share. Have a great weekend.

@westaustralian This is completely incorrectly interpreted. The Claremont clinic is for bookings only, made weeks ago. Allocations are already set. AZ is now available through a GP so a face to face discussion with a Doctor can be had. Shame on you for promoting vaccine hesitancy. False news!!

@jwacarrollNZ @ThomsonFiji @jwacarrollNZ this is a great summary - who wrote it?

Open access to critical data like this can inform nutritional sensitive policy everywhere ☺️

Job alert! 📣 Seeking someone with experience working in fisheries science and stock assessments to join our interdisciplinary team!
A key part of this role will be overseeing the development of methods to assess data limited stocks. Closes May 30. https://t.co/o1Vw1R3Ld3

@TaotaoTasi @saumweber There’s polarisation on something that both actually agree on, fisheries folks see a place for closed fishing zones and the MPA camp would agree mgmt is key, but keep focused on targets not outcomes. With recreational fishers, I found the labels we gave mgmt zones important

[Asha McNeill @AshaMcNeill]

Happy #WorldFisheriesDay and thank you to all in the sector globally for ensuring fisheries can continue to feed the world sustainably. Thoughts are with every fisheries family - through COVID-19 & always, may you have access to safe and fair work, and your human rights protected

"I have been engaged in fishing since childhood and have seen so many benefits from it," says Fackson Phiri, 54, Zambia.

@jess_carilli I’m training my dog out of a fear of other dogs by counter conditioning/desensitisation - giving her treats every time we see one (Google pavlovs dog)
Maybe it works with children!?!? See a dog = treats! No dog = no treats!!! Eventually you have a positive emotional response 😂

[Asha McNeill @AshaMcNeill]

@Pia_Ricca I’d say good on him for questioning his food system and going vegan if that’s his choice! I’d remind him those who have the luxury of opting not to eat a food should recognise their privilege. Also, fish is more about micronutrients than protein for the vulnerable (hidden hunger)

[Asha McNeill @AshaMcNeill]

Hi brains trust! Does anyone know any literature (inc grey) assessing the social impacts of the establishment of a marine research station ie centre for visiting researchers, high tech science facilities in a remote region? Is that what you would call it? #marsocsci #consocsci

[Samantha Emmert @samemmert]

Two tragedies last week - the explosion in #Beirut and oil spill in #Mauritius - could have been prevented by vessel registration reform. Proud of the critical work that @GlobalFishWatch is doing to bring transparency to this issue. https://t.co/m91XY4oAsO

@BlahaFrancisco Thanks for also championing accurate reporting! We have enough work ahead of us without relying on inaccurate information or overstating the problem. It’s like every time I scroll past a tweet that conflates fully fished with overfished FAO stats, I can’t help but reply 😂

[Asha McNeill @AshaMcNeill]

@BlahaFrancisco Thanks @BlahaFrancisco. Agree with the sentiment. I did note the author credited the FAO to the 2006 Worm et al paper which made the claim for the end of fish by 2048, since discredited.

We can’t claim outrage about these boats while eating imported squid from China.

Seafarer Rights, Ship Abandonment, and the Explosion in Beirut. What were 2,750 tons of dangerous ammonium nitrate doing in the port’s warehouses? Where did it come from and how long had it been there? https://t.co/3LZUCFVqYi
