My @TEDx talk “Deadly cures: how venomous animals could save your life” is now online. My attempt to explain why #venomous animals should be admired and respected rather than vilified.

Why I no longer post on Twitter. https://t.co/U9ednsQ5CH

That is what being on the wrong side of history looks like. The world stands with #Ukraine at #UNGA.

Centipedes are 😳😳😳

Hey @LewisArchibald_ , it was great pleasure to meet you at the 36th European Peptide Symposium in Sitges and discuss #Peptide4crops with you and @FabienPlisson. Looking forward to hearing more about your bioinsecticide work at Solasta Bio.

Identification list for the ‘Venoms GRC’ photo.

Back on Twitter after 1 month travelling to USA for @grcvenom, UK for Oxford Venoms & Toxins, Spain for 36th European Peptide Symposium, & Singapore to shoot a video for @PacBio. Nice to be back in sunny Brisbane for an extended period of time. Photo is of 'Venoms GRC' attendees.

Prey specialisation is known as stenophagy. Please contact Ondřej or me if you know where to find any of the pictured prey-specialist spiders. #WhiteTailedSpiders, #PelicanSpiders, #PirateSpiders & Portia prey on other spiders, while the other pictured spiders like to eat ants.

Ondřej Michálek, a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow in @VenomsLab, studies the venom of #spiders that eat specific prey, such as ants or termites. Please contact me or Ondřej @SpecSpiderVenom if you know where to find #WhiteTailedSpiders (Lampona murina), which eat other spiders.

Very cool! A perfect gift for @insect_venomics I reckon.

Wonderful mini reunion of current and former group members of the @IMBatUQ @VenomsLab at the #GRCvenom22 conference

Huge congrats to @VenomsLab grad student Shaodong Guo on passing his #PhD oral examination! It has been a tremendous privilege to mentor Shaodong on his PhD journey investigating the potential of #SpiderVenom #Peptides as #EcoFriendly #bioinsecticides. #proudPI 👏🥂🎉🕷️

Fantastic opportunity for #postdoctoral study in the #HolfordLab, led by the fabulous Mandë Holford @scimaven. As well as the opportunity to do great science, you will receive superb mentoring and #SciComm opportunities.

Huge congrats to @VenomsLab student Jessica (Jess) Beanland for graduating yesterday with First Class Honours for her research on #octopus #chemosensation. Her violin playing also brought a new dimension to our lab jams! #ProudPI #WomenInSTEM

Outstanding opportunity for a #PhD scholarship to work on computational screening of #antifungal drugs with the fabulous @DeplazesEvelyne!

Huge and delightful surprise that @VenomsLab alumnus Victoria Foster flew all the way from the UK for her PhD graduation at #UQ. Tori will soon be Dr Dr Foster as she is doing medical studies in London. Just like old times Tori! #ProudPI #WomenInSTEM #PartyTime
