Nesting behaviour drives the evolution of heat tolerance and climate vulnerability in bees! Check out our pre-print on 95 species of Australian native bee across the latitudinal extent of Australia! 🐝 #nativebee #climateadaptation #heattolerance #plasticity #behaviour #bees #climatechange

Just a little fun for a Sat morning. @arc_gov_au funding vs fossil fuel company tax concessions in 2022-23. Big thanks to the awesome @ARC_Tracker for all that you do. Please do something to fix this @ausgov.

It's harder to get funding for basic research projects than ever before in Australia.
The @arc_gov_au Discovery Projects scheme now has the lowest “success rate” ever: 16.3%.
Only 1 in 6 grants are funded.
Why? The funding available has plummeted.
Please help, Jason Clare MP❗️
