IT’S FINALLY DONE! 🧬💻🐸 It’s taken me nearly 4 years, but I have genotyped ~1,100 Southern Corroboree #frogs 🎉 This mammoth project involved…

🐸 Happy world #frog day 🐸 Heres to this little frog, who reminds me every day what it means to be a conservation biologist, to keep fighting to help conserve our precious wildlife and ecosystems 🫶

I realize I'm a bit late mentioning this paper, but I just wanted to make sure that everyone reads the new assessment on amphibian declines [1/5]. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

And that's a wrap 💫🐸👩🏼‍🔬 After 3 longs years, Friday marked the end of my last experiment of my #PhD 🥹 I'm not sure what to do without all the #frogs, but if I asked my supervisors I'm sure they'd tell me to get writing 🙈

Tune in to @einstein_agogo today to hear me talk about selective breeding, and how we can use it to assist the conservation of some of our most endangered 🐸🐸🐸 📸D.Goodall

Today on @einstein_agogo @3RRRFM at 11am AEST I will be interviewing @MicrobeMik about frogs and @JasmineSchipp (left) and @RenzaS (right) and diabetes. Jasmine is one of our amazing #20phds20mins alumni from last year. Listen via 102.7FM, the 3RRR App or rrr.org.au

My first #publication as a co-author!! 🥺🥳 We FINALLY got Alpine Tree frogs to breed in #captivity 😱 How did we do it? Overwinter the 🐸 at ❄ temperatures, then put them in outdoor mescosms to experience the 🌤 and 🌧 #firstpaper #new #PhD @LA_Brannelly peerj.com/articles/15179/

Captive breeding in the endangered alpine tree frog, Litoria verreauxii alpina

Amphibians are experiencing dramatic worldwide declines and many species are reliant on captive breeding programs to ensure continued survival. However, captive breeding in amphibians is not always...

OUT NOW 🥳👩🏼‍🔬🐸 So exciting to see my first #PhD chapter published! 🥺 Starting off as an opportunist side project, this has turned into a topic I have become super passionate about and I can’t wait to see where it all ends up! 🤞 int-res.com/articles/dao_oa/…

Great segment on #frog mortalities, the deadly chytrid fungus and what we’re all trying to do to conserve our native species 🐸 with ⁦@TAKosch⁩ ⁦@deborah_bower⁩ and Mike McFadden ⁦@tarongazoo⁩! abclisten.page.link/3cGs6fT8…

Why are so many frogs dying and the efforts to bring them back? - ABC listen

Scientists are baffled about what’s killing our frogs. Hear about the efforts to turn it around.

We got the best news today ⬇️🐸👏 Super excited to see this come to fruition, and to now be able to utilise this amazing resource for more #frog disease research! ✨
Dr Tiffany Kosch (tiffanykosch.bsky.social)👩‍🔬🤿@TAKosch5 Oct 2022
I just received the most chunk of data from @genomewarriors. The very first Southern Corroboree frog genome!!!! Getting this genome has been such a long time in the making. Having it should help change the course of the conservation for this highly threatened species. Stay tuned!

There are still a few days left to apply to do a PhD with us at One Health Research Group @OneHealthRes at @FVASunimelb at @UniMelb. This is an excellent opportunity to use the latest technologies to develop solutions for chytridiomycosis 🐸🍄🧬👩‍🔬👩🏿‍🔬👨‍🔬👨🏾‍🔬

I'm excited to announce we have started our first large Bd-challenge study in corroboree frogs. This project has been many years in the making. We will be investigating the genetic basis of immunity in this critically endangered species @OneHealthRes @FVASunimelb @MicrobeMik 🐸🧬

This could quite possible have been the best night of my life 🤩 We don’t have #Salamanders in Australia 👎 so seeing these amazing #amphibians for the first time was magical 🥹
