Here is an exciting story - understanding how age-based risk factors in the host may contribute to viral evolution of coronaviruses. 🦇🦠🔬 Super important work that takes a One Health approach to building a harmonious future with wildlife and the environment!

Dutton's happy to welcome Netanyahu, a genocidal war criminal with an outstanding International Criminal Court arrest warrant, to Australia. So guess it's no surprise he says a Coalition govt would reassess the security clearances of Palestinians who have arrived from Gaza #AusVotes25 What a ghoul

It's time for the first #BOOKCLUB of the season! Erin Welsh sat down with the one and only @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social to talk about his latest book, Everything is Tuberculosis. Tune in for a tour through the history of tuberculosis and a reminder that investing in public health saves lives

If you missed #QandA last night, Richard dropped some truth bombs. You can watch the highlights of his appearance here: australiainstitute.org.au/post/busting...

I have zero patience for “do climate work but just don’t call it that”. I am not talking in code about an existential threat bc a handful of Americans like profiting off oil and gas & have managed to brainwashed another handful of Americans. Don’t capitulate. They’ll take your funding anyway.

Neither Anthony Albanese nor Peter Dutton mentioned the two obvious reforms that would help to solve the housing crisis: scrapping or reducing negative gearing and removing the capital gains tax discount for investors.

Dr Laura Grogan, Senior Lecturer in Wildlife Science at UQ, talks to CBCS about her career journey so far — notably making the switch from veterinary science to ecology and conservation. A talented artist as well as a scientist, you can also see some of her incredible artwork in the article too:

It's DAVID LITTLEPROUD DAVID LITTLEPROUD is the NATIONALS leader saying children who commit crimes do not deserve civil rights Guess which communities he's dehumanising & where this disgusting discourse leads #LegitimisingRacism #AusVotes25

Great quick read from some superstars in our group!! 🌳 🦇 🦠 💩 theconversation.com/what-is-aust...

Rabies appears to be endemic now in this seal population. Lots of unanswered questions but may have spread from local jackals or other wildlife 😥

Thanks @janeqiu.bsky.social & @sciam.bsky.social for highlighting our work, and the imperative for ecological solutions to bat viral spillover. Progressing vaccines and health care is important for pandemic preparedness, but so are interventions to prevent spillovers happening in the first place.

#Hendra@30 was an absolute blast! Had a great time catching up with close colleagues and meeting many new people doing fantastic things in the henipavirus space. Looking forward to #Nipah@30! #BatOneHealth #DiseaseEcology #henipavirus

Hi I'm Brent and I'm a PhD student working on viral co-infection dynamics, hoping (🤞) it will help us understand how interactions between #pathogens impact disease #spillover. On Bluesky to network 👋 and share what I'm reading 📖 #OneHealth #DiseaseEcology #zoonoses
