So excited to be part of the FameLab finals this year!
Meet our FameLab Australia 2024 finalists! Each of them will have just 3 minutes to captivate the audience at the FameLab Final with their research. Expect to hear about innovative therapies to mend broken hearts, edible shelter for lambing ewes, real-time sensors for thunderstorm asthma, and much more!
Find out more about the finalists here: fwam.com.au/blog/famelab-aus…
Tickets to the FameLab National Final on 26 September are now on sale: visit.museum.wa.gov.au/boola…
Thank you to our FameLab Australia partners: the @wamuseum, @cheltfestivals, @commitAUS, @CBFgrants, @CurtinUni, @ForrestResearch, @MurdochUni, @uwanews and the Western Australian Government through the Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation.

Fabulous outcome at NSW/ACT Branch of the ACPSEM MedPhys2023.
Congratulations to @okeefealice for the most outstanding presentation award and Kiarn Roughley for the commendations of the jury.
Proud of all the TNT and CMRP students at @uoweis

Hey @okeefealice is this the thing you told us about ages ago? Has it been proven now?

Superconductors? Magnetic levitation? Could this be the key to virtually unlimited power? @okeefealice joins me on ABC Illawarra today, possibly still this excited. tiktok.com/@labratbag/video/…

What are women scientists 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 in kids' tv cartoons? Girly, violent magicians in exaggerated "laboratories" who can only exert power through the men around them. New #scicomm paper with Jade Soucy-Humphreys, @AnnaSo_Jurgens + @ANU_Popsicule out now! frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

See this is why I think TikTok just works. Where else can I passively imbibe/ refresh my understanding of quantum mechanics in between cat videos before I even realize what’s happening? @okeefealice #TikTok vm.tiktok.com/ZSdMVrvSr/

Happy PhD students @SarahPhysicist and @okeefealice producing the next nanoparticle generation for image guided radiation therapy in Clermont-Ferrand/France

After one month of CT imaging on nanoparticles in glioma, some 😴. Well done to our surgeons @abasskhochaiche and @SarahPhysicist, to the assistants surgeons @okeefealice, Carolyn Hollis and Michael Valceski. You are stars and rocked! Thanks to UOW AEC for your support!

@okeefealice is speaking about the Australian Synchrotron on ABC Drive.

It’s important to put extra effort into calibrating one's uncertainties in those areas where one is not really an expert. That doesn’t mean only experts can have opinions. Everyone is entitled to opinions about everything. Just not to unwarranted confidence.

How are we going to tell humans 40,000 years in the future where we buried all the nuclear waste? And what does it have to do with bioluminescent cats? And is there a catchy song about it? All of this will be explained on ABC Illawarra when @okeefealice talks Nuclear Semiotics!

We had no choice … we had to go through this difficult year. No easy way out but opportunities are to come.
Together we will do much.

We will be back! Another successful experiment. Thanks to @uoweis @AINSE_Ltd @ausynchrotron and @CMRPuow for supporting our experiment at the IMBL @ANSTO Australian Synchrotron. @Stephanie_Corde @SarahPhysicist @okeefealice @abasskhochaiche @EletteEngels

What is going on well and what is not going so well in science communication? How should we move forward?
Check out the graphic recording summarising the key takeaways of @mss7676 keynote at the #FSCC21 last June. @wissimdialog

Day 3: Irradiation and DNA damage assays at the IMBL beamline of the @ausynchrotron . It’s also the birthday of one of the @CMRPuow TNT member Michael Valceski! Happy Birthday !!
