25.01.2022 Some perspective about #research impact and engagement with end-users by IAFS President. This is so critical to #forensicscience #iafs2023 Click the link to listen! https://mobile.twitter.com/UTSIm/status/1320874107940999168
23.01.2022 Don’t forget to eat your greens! This friendly PSA is coming to you from IG/reneehowell18 and Kofi the Goodfellow’s Tree Kangaroo at WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo. Li...ke other tree kangaroos, Kofi loves climbing into the canopies and in the wild would call the dense tropical rainforests home. Fun fact: these adorable creatures are the largest tree-dwelling mammals in Australia!
23.01.2022 Can #forensic science learn from the #COVID-19 crisis? Problem resolution requires critical thinking and inter-disciplinary collaborations more so than focusing on one type of risk! Read the latest paper by IAFS President and #iafs2023 Discipline Convenor: https://www.sciencedirect.com//arti/pii/S0379073820303650
22.01.2022 The (in)famous #iafs2023 koalas enjoying the fact that they now have 3 more years to show off. Here they are teaching how to eat an Aussie classic at the University of Lausanne, @FDCA_UNIL. Stay safe!
21.01.2022 Another great contribution to the humanitarian forensic science action. Well done @DrJodieWard of @CFS_UTS! #iafs2020 The @AusFedPolice has launched the country's first National #DNA Program, with the hope of resolving long-term #missingpersons cases across Australia. https://t.co/RKzgxh9DYN?amp=1
21.01.2022 Alright, kiddo, this isn’t a climbing gym! Patient koala mum Kiah’s getting used to the bumbling antics of her little joey, who’s started exploring outside... the pouch. This adorable duo live at Gorge Wildlife Park in the Cudlee Creek region of the Visit Adelaide Hills, which is a 45-minute drive from South Australia capital city of Adelaide. Whilst Cudlee Creek was impacted by bushfire late last year, the region is open for business and welcoming the support of visitors. If it means meeting cute koalas like these two, there’s no need to twist our arm! See more
