We’re hiring a continuing (tenured) academic at level C, D or E in #sedimentary #geology. We’re particularly keen on someone with a #criticalminerals focus. We’re a very friendly, supportive group. You can find all the application information here jcu.edu.au/careers-at-jcu/va… @jcu

Only 3 Australian states mention a female scientist's work in their yr 11 and 12 coursework - fuelling the ‘lone male genius’ narrative.
@WomenInSTEMAu: the "narrative that old white men are responsible for all scientific discovery is embarrassingly dated"

📸Finally working through some photo stock after busy times for all leading up to Goldschmidt 2023 🎊🔬. Here, an amazing visit to Thermo Fisher (Bremen) to check out collision/reaction cell MC-ICP-MS and tomorrow’s isotope dark horse (??), Orbitrap MS/MS 🧪👀🤙

I had the opportunity to present some of my PhD research last week at @jcu Inspiration on Tap (alongside @JaelenMyers)! Many thanks to everyone that came out (the night before a public holiday!) to listen to me talk about drones and conservation!

Check out the amazing work being done by @Thesaltygeochem getting out there in the world! We're studying shark life history with lasers 🔦 and X-rays 🩻 on 🦈 vertebrae. Thank you @saveourseas and @Ffisheries_lab for awesomeness and support! Follow the link below to read more.
Researcher @Thesaltygeochem & supervisor Dr Brandon Mahan aim to better understand the life history of the Speartooth Shark, a rare river shark that occupies the Adelaide River.

ONE STEP CLOSER🧐🧪🧠: In a new Metallomics article, IsoTropics' Dr Brandon Mahan hypothesizes that a non-invasive early diagnostic for Alzheimer's may be designed from tracking metal isotopes (like potassium) in the bloodstream. @JCUGeoscience @jcu @JCUConnect
New research from a JCU-led study has proposed a hypothesis that higher levels of certain potassium isotopes (atoms) in a person’s bloodstream could be a way of detecting Alzheimer’s Disease much sooner than current methods allow.
