Amazing Public Lecture by Nobel Laureate Donna Strickland, Nobel Prize in Physics in 2018, at RMIT’s Capitol Theatre. Strickland pioneered chirped pulse amplification for lasers, enabling innovations such as laser eye surgery. She gave an inspirational talk about her love of photons.

I thoroughly enjoyed attending the Symposium for the 50th Anniversary of the WEHI Parasitology and Infectious Diseases Division. It was great to meet up with friends and colleagues, such as Prof Emeritus Robin Anders and Prof William Pomat, Director of the PNG Institute of Medical Research.

Please read this important article from the New York Times by @stephanienolen.bsky.social . The shut down of Programs on HIV, TB and malaria for 90 days and the attack on the agenda of USAID is a very sad day for people who benefit from and care about global health initiatives.
