How wonderful to see two PhD students — Lavi Singh and Samantha Whitling — speak at the launch of the Plant Biosecurity Centre! Inspiring next-gen scientists in action

[Australian Research Council @arc_gov_au]

Biosecurity is vital to protecting Australia’s environment, economy and way of life. Today, our CEO Prof Ute Roessner attended the ARC Training Centre in Plant Biosecurity launch, a collab of @ourANU, @jcu, @UniCanberra and 27 industry and govt partners🌱 https://t.co/XCwSO7hJCB
