#AdriftLab at their absolute best: pretending to be #shearwaters during a team photo. @TheLabAndField is a road kill bird, @SeabirdSentinel is regurgitating, the rest is anyones guess 🤣🤣

Massive thanks to photographer extraordinaire Justin for capturing this image for us and being an all-round legend 🙏💙📸

🎉BIG CONGRATS🎉 to #AdriftLab PhD candidate Alix - today she aced her Confirmation of Candidature exam - whoop whoop 🙌 Alix delivered her seminar on how #nanoplastics affect #wildlife health & answered all the tough examiner questions with professionalism and grace 🤩 Amazing project, fantastic field site and team - can’t wait to be reunited on #LordHoweIsland soon!! 🐦🏝💙

Now, to submit chapter one - a brilliantly written perspectives piece on the need for more #InterdisciplinaryScience to accelerate the pace and depth of #PlasticPollution research

TWO #AdriftLab student papers ⭐️ACCEPTED⭐️ for publication in only TWO days. Both are first-ever, first-author papers for our recent graduates: Bianca (Hon) & Karli (MSc) 🎉

Bianca & Karli are named on both papers (in high impact, interdisciplinary journals). That’s because, rather that publishing separately, these powerhouse #WomenInSTEM opted to support one another’s projects & get TWO papers out of the process 🥰👍🤩

Stay tuned for brilliant new science on #microplastics and #nanoplastics in #Tasmanian #shorebirds and #seabirds
