- October is breast cancer awareness month. 🎀 I spoke with Australian Breast Cancer Research on what to look out for, when to take action, and how to look out for your loved ones. The earlier breast cancer is detected, the better the chances of survival. www.instagram.com/reel/DQX9N45...
- Very excited to be at the Proteoglycan and Matrix Biology Society of ANZ conference this week! 🔬👩💻Looking forward to some great talks and seeing colleagues. (Also, churros for afternoon tea 😮)
- Closing out the meeting is Tim Sargeant with an engaging plenary on the “trash bags” of the cell (autophagy)!
- Pleasure to then chair fascinating presentations in the ECR/MCR session at the ANZSCDB Adelaide Meeting 🪑🗣️
- Nice talk by our student @mogana-rajkumar.bsky.social on ROCK signalling in Metastasis at the ANZSCDB Adelaide Meeting.

- Medical Research Future Fund: Advocates urge increased disbursements amid US research cuts “the government could release as much as $1.4 billion each year, more than double the current amount.” Funding delivers breakthroughs! www.theage.com.au/politics/fed...
- What an honour to be able to don the puffy hat again yesterday, to give the oration at a University of Adelaide graduation ceremony for the Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology. Truly delighted to be asked. Congrats to all the graduates and wishing you the very best!

- Just simple antibody optimisations, but it feels good to be back doing lab work after a year away from the bench. 🔬🥼👩🔬 #immunofluorescence #confocal
- Was my pleasure to moderate the panel today at the inaugural Female Fellows symposium “Balancing Acts”. An insightful, open and frank discussion on juggling a scientific career with caring, part time work and leave, and a real sense of solidarity.
- Absolutely thrilled to receive an AIPS 2025 SA Young Tall Poppy Award! Wouldn't be possible without our wonderful team, dedicated patient advocates, & various funding bodies that allowed me to connect with scientific/non-scientific groups to communicate our research. www.unisa.edu.au/media-centre...
- Finally got the time to put together my awesome new Lego, The Evolution of STEM 🧬🔬🧪🚀
- Come work with us! Seeking a Research Associate/Fellow to work on our NHMRC funded project using nanofabrication to model tumour ECM structures.

- A bit late to the party, but finished Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus. POV as a reader: captivating, funny, gripping story, relatable in professional sense. As a woman in science: Fantastic to see how far we’ve come, but some aspects still unfortunately resonate. Recommend!

- Reposted by Sarah BoyleHey folks! I got a tattoo of my beloved PIEZO ion channel on my arm! Now I can show how they activate (flatten) under pressure by flexing—Will add a bit of performance art to my science talks 🧪🧠.
- Today on #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience, I’m reflecting on where I’m at. Pausing and slowing things down to raise a family takes its toll on an academic career in so many invisible ways, but it pushes me to work harder. This little babe (me!) knows it’s worth it.
- Really enjoyed this session put together by @themeshwork.bsky.social. Always good to hear about the latest research and meet new people in the mechano field!
- A truly amazing and inspiring session on Advances in Mechanobiology!!! Huge thanks to @drsarahboyle.bsky.social @carstenschulte4.bsky.social @mathildemathieu.bsky.social for sharing their research with the rest of us and @ccstorytime.bsky.social for moderating!!!! See u all in the next!!!

- Extremely happy for our team led by @tmem-samuel.bsky.social to have secured an NHMRC Ideas Grant, investigating how distinct ECM structures can influence cancer growth and metastasis. But, more support needed for EMCR apps to foster next gen of emerging leaders. www.unisa.edu.au/media-centre...
