Excited to be presenting at the University of Birmingham's biosciences faculty on the impacts of PFAS on Australia's wildlife. 🌿🦘 Highlighting the use of #omics-based tools to uncover how these 'forever chemicals' affect our ecosystems. #Biosciences #PFAS #WildlifeConservation

🌿✨ I’m currently visiting the Centre for Environmental Research & Justice at the University of Birmingham! 🏛️ it’s great to hear about the fascinating #omics research being done to assess chemical hazards & environmental harm (🤫 for me, the centre name conjures up thoughts of Captain Planet too! 🌍💚)

Just landed in London to kick off a 3+ month sabbatical in the UK and Europe! It's going to be awesome to meet various EPAs and research institutes that are using omics-based tools to assess environmental harm. 🔬 #ResearchJourney #EnvironmentalScience #OmicsTools

Just visited Agilent in Singapore and got a behind-the-scenes look at their factory where LCMS instruments are made! 🏭🔬 Truly fascinating to see the precision and innovation in action. #Agilent #Singapore #LCMS #Innovation #TechTour

🧬🔬 What can #omics -based tools reveal about the 'tar' balls that washed up on #Australian #beaches this summer? We are about to use these advanced techniques to help identify their complex composition, trace their origins, & understand environmental impacts. 🌊🌍 #Metabolomics #EnvironmentalScience

And the installation begins! Can’t wait to have our new LC-TQ up and running... so many environmental metabolomics questions to explore with this new instrument.

Exciting times ahead! 🚀

🐊 Fresh delivery of crocodile serum! Collected from PFAS hotspots around airports & defence bases. Curious to see what these samples reveal about PFAS bioaccumulation in these long-lived animals and their health impacts using omics-based tools! 🔬 #Science #Research #PFAS #Crocodiles #metabolomics

So the number of boxes has multiplied! 📦 Now we wait for them to be unpacked and our new LC-MS to be installed on the bench so we can analyze environmental metabolomics samples en masse! 🌱🔬 #ScienceLife #LabWork #Metabolomics

🌿 The vibrant shades of 💚green💚 from extracting metabolites and lipids from various algae & seaweed were stunning! We're on the hunt for novel bioactive compounds to enhance our food and boost nutritional benefits.🌱

It must be almost Christmas 🎄🎅🏼🎄... Christmas songs are being played everywhere, and even the freshwater turtles 🐢 are joining in the festive spirit! Happy holidays to all, and may all your omics dreams come true.

Despite all the rain in Brisbane, it’s great to see my backyard is heaving with native frogs!

Croc-omics! 🐊 here we're looking at the bioaccumulation of contaminants and how they affect long-lived animals using omics-based ecosurveillance tools.
