Talking Science
Science helps us understand the world—but too often, it's seen as something left behind in school. By making research and researchers more visible, we make science more accessible, engaging, and relevant.
I speak to the media because science shouldn't stay confined to academic circles. To spark conversation, drive change, and reach communities, we need to talk to the community. Whether through radio, podcasts, video, or print, media lets me share science with people across Australia and beyond.

The Found a Fossil Project
What would you do if you discovered a fossil, or an Indigneous artefact?
Natural and cultural heritage material, from fossils to Indigenous artefacts, are not always found by scientists or archaeologists. More often, they are found by farmers, bushwalkers, beachgoers, and beyond. Yet, the perspectives of these groups are often left out of the conversation. Who might these people tell if they discovered something? Would they bother telling anyone? Who would they trust with their finds? Who do they distrust, and why?
To answer some of these questions, the Found a Fossil Project was created to provide information about heritage protections, identification, and handling guidelines to the finders of these special heritage discoveries.
