πWhat stories do you tell about your research?
πWhat stories are you listening to?
πCould you be listening differently?
πWhat stories do we need to tell together?
Questions posed in a thought-provoking start to #ASFB2025 from Jess Melbourne-Thomas, on science storytelling in a challenging future.

Inspiring start #ASFB2025 with novel storytelling plenary by @drjessmt.bsky.social @csiro.bsky.social highlighting use of co-design, transdisciplinary research approaches and 2-way knowledge exchange to build climate-resilient pathways for healthy aquatic systems and associated sectors.

Montage of images with a central focus on a VR headset, with ten different photos showing people in different immersive spaces - giving talks, running conferences, exploring worlds and interacting socially.
For #NationalScienceWeek, I wanted to share my fave technology: the #VR headset! These enable an amazing immersive collaboration that opens up opportunities to go well #BeyondBeingThere π β€οΈ

To celebrate #NationalScienceWeek I want to share my favourite aspect of science - combining my love of nature with my curiosity (my inner "but why?" 3yr old!).
Seeking solutions for biodiversity, fundamental for a healthy planet and society.

For National Science Week I wanted to share my favourite two little scientists! Miss 9yr old was born on the inaugural International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Miss 7yr old was born while I was in the very first contingent of #SuperStarsofSTEM π§βπ¬ π©βπ¬

Cover of book "Antarctica and the Earth System"
New book!! π
Antarctica is intimately connected to the rest of our planet, affecting climate, ecosystems, cultures and society. Our new book draws together international experts to explore this influence, and to understand what humans are doing to Antarctica (1/n)
