The State of Environment Report assesses the health of Australia’s environment from the tropics to the poles.
The report's three chief authors, @DrEmmaLJohnston (@Sydney_Uni), Ian Cresswell + Terri Janke (@UNSW), provide an overview of its findings. bit.ly/3yW9Cm6
We need your help! Do you want to use #genomics, and are interested in #conservation? Please answer our anonymous short survey on sequencing and compute access across the globe.

DNA samples from 21 night parrots ready for genome sequencing!! This slow burn project has been supercharged thanks to @AGRF_genomics @BioplatformsAus @ThreatenedSpGen - samples from WA, SA, and QLD. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Very excited to be helping with this project. This is what @ThreatenedSpGen was set up to achieve - genetic resources for some of our most threatened species that have never had resources before!! @CratesRoss @CatMYoung @teamswiftparrot @BioplatformsAus @Sydney_Science
King Island scrubtits are among Australia’s most endangered birds - @CratesRoss & @CatMYoung are doing a genetic study to identify new approaches to protecting them!

Our wonderful Program Manager is the @EBPgenome member of the week!
Meet Sarah Richmond, who serves as the General Manager of Science Programs at @BioplatformsAus and Project Manager for the @ThreatenedSpeciesGen.

🎉GOOD NEWS STORY
Five years ago there were just 17 birds in the wild. In December, 70 birds were counted at Melaleuca, breaking the previous year's record of 51 birds👇
