Dare I mention we still have high on campus attendance at large classes @MonashPharm
The students clap when we finish our lecture.
There is such value from students learning from one another and their teachers in person. Plus feeling connected with their peers and profession

This week I was very lucky to visit Prep and year 3 classes to talk about science.
It was so fun to see their enthusiasm and excitement for the chromatography and cheese experiments.
Our daughter Kate continues to be a great little scientist! 🧑🔬 🌟

Thankyou @purton_louise for shining a light for people with disabilities
2 weeks ago our son was diagnosed with a disability
Yesterday, despite challenge, he competed in school swim - 1st in all strokes 🥹
This #IDPWD2023 I hope world will embrace his unique talents & be kind
Today (3rd December) is International Day of People with Disability #IDPWD2023. 1 in 5 people have a disability. We exist, we thrive, we make many major contributions to society, work & leadership. Our disability does not define us. Sending ♥️ to all disabled ppl in the world ♥️

So important to improve metabolic health of people living with #cysticfibrosis

On my way to #AHA2023 Amer Heart Assoc Philadelphia meeting
So excited for the #lymphatic session!
But there was a stow away in my backpack - a massive Australian huntsmen spider.
Don’t worry 🇺🇸- it is flushed away!

Family inspired @0rlagh and I to work on arthritis. For me it was son Mark treated @RCHMelbourne for Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA). ~1/400 get JIA yet it is poorly recognised /treated by carers/GPs and we need more specialists. Thanks @JAFAforkids advocating for kids /1
Congratulations to @AlinaDLam on publication of her 1st PhD paper.
Evaluates lymphatic uptake of different therapeutics after intra-articular injection.
We are super proud supervisors!
Thankyou to @0rlagh, Chris Porter, @enyuanc, Nathania Leong, others

Ha ha. Ours is called Swiper.
But I broke relations with Swiper 2 weeks ago because he kept vacuuming in the middle of the night. He has been banished to upside down position

Lucky to work with many wonderful women scientists in our lab and @MIPS_Australia
@HRM_MIPS
It is still hard to believe my dream of becoming a scientist came true!
My grandma, forced to leave school at 9yo, taught me the value of educating women

Beaming with pride. Our daughter Elena’s prep class are learning about how communities work. Mrs Casey asked “where would you like to see in the community” for an excursion. Lots of great answers. Elena said “Science Lab”#WomenInSTEM @HRM_MIPS
