2020 Shorebirds Competition Summary and Results
Primary students across Australia were invited to create a public awareness poster for a threatened shorebird found in Australia for our 2020 Shorebirds Competition. In response to COVID-19, and the changes to children’s learning environments, we opened the competition early and also included categories for individual children to enter, as well as school children.
Researchers uncover how pathogens hijack phosphate pathways to infect crops
A team of scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) has discovered how a powerful “weapon” used by many fungal pathogens enables them to cause disease in major food crops such as rice and corn
The best behind the neutron beam: Awards announced
