11.01.2022 A #ScienceWeek event that combines History with Science! History Trust of South Australia bring us an online event for National Science Week: French Science on the High Seas: Voyages of discovery to our shores and beyond. Could South Australia ever have been French? The English certainly thought so. Through revolution, empire and restoration, late 18th and early 19th century France maintained an unwavering commitment to research and discovery in the Pacific region and in Aust...ralia. More interested in science than in new colonies, these early French voyages, led by commanders like Baudin along the south coast have left many French names on the South Australian coast and on many of our plants and animals, as they have in Western Australia and Tasmania and elsewhere. They took specimens back to French museums where they provided an important foundation for Australian biology and conservation, particularly in botany and marine biology. England may have colonised Australia, but for many years it was France that understood it best. The premiere of this richly illustrated short documentary film, sponsored by National Science Week and hosted by the South Australian Maritime Museum, brings to life our fascinating and colourful French history and reminds us of a time when scientific research involved intrepid voyages in tall ships on the high seas, battling scurvy and storms, insects and rats, and hostilities both on board and on shore. Narrated by author and biologist, Dr Danielle Clode, and French lecturer, Dr Christle Maizonniaux, this 45min film will be followed by a live Q&A with English and French language options. This special free screening is part of the History Trusts Talking History series. Screening will commence at 5.30pm, 18 August on Zoom. There will be a short Q&A following the film. https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/talking-history-online-fren

10.01.2022 Have you wondered if you could share your beautiful wildlife photos to help understand the environment? You certainly can! You can share your great photos of biodiversity beyond Instagram and help lots of citizen science programs around the world. From conservation to public health, from local to global importance, you can make scientific contributions by getting involved in citizen science. In this online event , we will explore how some citizen scientists in Australia are m...aking a revolution in the way we monitor mosquitoes, to prevent mosquito-borne diseases. Mozzie Monitors engages the community for the benefit of public health. We will also stream our short movie which is part of the Community Screenings in the SCINEMA International Science Film Festival 2020 . Further, we will explore the promise of using citizen science to engage the community and improve knowledge of biodiversity while improving public health outcomes through University of south Australias upcoming Activating Citizen Science" Large scale bioblitz style engagement has the potential to increase public engagement with citizen science, increased engagement can translate to health benefits for the community. Check it out how to become a citizen scientist!
