NHMRC Investigator Grants out today.
A devastating day for many. I have already received messages from some of the best researchers I know who have missed out.
The senior levels had a cutoff of 5.93 (females), 6.2 (males) - according to my sources.
The impact will be wide spread.
Itโs been rough. A few leaks. Still a lack of trust.
Good morning people.
Happy Monday.
The ARC have said (on LinkedIn) they will release outcomes for Discovery Projects Expressions of Interest (2027) tomorrow๐

Here is Thor's Helmet......a delightful nebula.
Captured in Melbourne, 10km from the CBD!
In some parts of the sky, galaxies are conveniently located close together so you can capture them in a single image. The Leo Triplet is such a group.

The 2026 SSA #Mentoring Program launched today with training from the excellent @drshanerrr.bsky.social. So happy to see both new and familiar faces in the stats community joining the program! Well done to @nicolewhite.bsky.social, Lizzie Koreevar and the committee! statsoc.org.au/Mentoring

My 13 year old was my main problem.....he kept stealing items of my clothing because he was cold :-)
All mine were with my phone held by me in the wind ๐๐๐๐
Still awesome. ๐
