Embracing neurodiversity in research and teaching

Diana Tan from Macquarie University explores neurodiversity barriers in research degree pathways
October 19, 2025 at 5:35 AM
4 - Do wireless communication technologies pose a threat to male fertility? (and health in general). Dr Geoffry De Iuliis from The Uni of Newcastle

Sperm and the male reproductive tract are a sensitive model to explore how electromagnetic energy used in wireless communications may affect biology
October 19, 2025 at 4:06 AM
3 - Dr Sab Ventura from Monash University explains the difficulties of developing non-hormonal male contraceptives

The key may be using combination approaches and targeting the vas deferens

Interesting targets could include adrenergic and purinergic receptors
October 19, 2025 at 3:38 AM
2 - PAF1 duplication orchestrates male germline specific transcription and meiosis in Drosophila - Dr Rippei Hayashi, ANU

Flies offer significant tools to explore genetic regulation of biology

PAF1 plays important roles in multiple phases of sperm production

Congratulations to Fiona Brownfoot, recipient of SRB's 2025 Newcastle Reproduction Emerging Research Leader Award!

Fiona's team develops novel devices and uses AI to improve fetal monitoring and identifying treatments for placental disease.

Congratulations to Lindsay Wu (UNSW), recipient of the 2025 @mercyperinatal.bsky.social Mid-Career Medal for Women's Health.

Lindsay's research has shown altered metabolism as a cause of reproductive ageing, including mechanisms for the biosynthesis of the redox cofactor NAD+
September 17, 2025 at 2:23 AM
Congratulations to Dr Kelly Walton (UQ), recipient of the 2025 Robinson Research Institute Award for Excellence in Reproductive Biology Research.

Kelly's research has led to the development of TGF-β technologies for modulating reproductive and metabolic function
