Thrilled to be joining Bohdee Media as a science advisor! Adam Boland and his colleagues are astonishingly creative and accomplished storytellers *and* social/traditional media creators. And never have those communication skills been more needed… the challenges facing our world will require more science and technology not less, and that tech positive view needs to be heard more widely than ever.

The precious metals used in our smartphones were forged in dying stars and mined from the Earth at enormous cost, so we aren’t getting any more of them! Yet there are over 4 million unused or broken mobile phones gathering dust in our homes and businesses representing a huge stockpile of valuable materials and metals that can be reclaimed through recycling with MobileMuster in their Go For Zero campaign this year.

Incredible news as one of the largest Federal Government’s Modern Manufacturing Initiative grants ($2.325M from Gov, for a total expenditure of $4.65M) is awarded to Titomic and Swinburne!

Hard to believe the iconic The Project is nearly over… it’s even harder to believe that’s ten years(!) since I failed to convince Freddie Flintoff about a new planet in our solar system (seriously I loved some of the guest hosts!), or getting to share cutting edge science on the desk in front of a live studio audience (I’m amazed my heartbeat wasn’t picked up by the mic), or the honour of a regular segment in over 50 appearances showcasing great science stories shared to Australia in the fun yet informative way only The Project managed to do so well for so many years.

It was an honour to brief US Ambassador Caroline Kennedy and Consul General Christine Elder on the myriad industry, education, and workforce opportunities in the space sector for our two nations of Australia and the USA, as part of the AmCham Australia Space Committee. On a personal as well as professional level, this was a highlight..! You could say I was over the Moon with this meeting.
