Thanks for the great workshop last week, and I'm looking forward to talking more and hopefully more lunches in the park 😊
Our crack team of experts are tackling how data can better inform ecosystem protection in data-limited systems like Antarctica. We’re developing methods so that as monitoring gets cheaper, easier, and more desired, everyone has the tools to help decide where to do it

FMD may set hearts racing, but good biosecurity protects us from at least 16,925 other things as well - we need to shift the narrative to the 30:1 ROI (i.e., net benefit) of action rather than focusing on the past costs and damages of inaction. @CEBRA_UoM pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/artic…
