I had a great time attending Science Meets Parliament #SMP2024 last week with Girish Lakhwani! It was invaluable to learn how to engage with policy makers and network with both scientists and parliamentarians. Thanks Science & Technology Australia for a great event and Exciton Science for sending me!

Our 2023 Annual Report is available now!

Prepping for my organic chem lecture last night and found a doodle on my notes after breakfast this morning. Looks like my 6-yr-old is helping me explain the valency of carbon. Learning by observation. 🤓

We congratulate nine brilliant and emerging STEM leaders on winning prestigious Science Meets Parliament scholarships for 2024: scienceandtechnologyaustralia.org.au/meet-the-brill…

Generously sponsored by Exciton Science, Australian Academy of Science, Academy of Technological Sciences & Engineering, ATN Universities, CropLife Australia, Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre, and PocheSA+NT.

Our members at Sydney Chemistry and Sydney Nano have collaborated with CNRS 🌍 in France to better understand the fascinating interaction between nanoplatelets and ligands.

Their findings have been published in @PNASnews:
