Flinders Fishy Folk had some great posters at CAVEPS
25.11.2025 22:10 — 👍 4 🔁 1 💬 0 📌 039 people, one quarter of the CAVEPS delegates, attended our best practice workshop for collaborating with Indigenous communities. The yarning circle couldn't get any bigger. This gives me hope that the future is looking bright for decolonising vertebrate palaeontology in Australasia.

ANSTO’s neutron and synchrotron facilities are among the best-run and most productive parts of Australia’s research system... It would be a grave mistake to allow short-term accounting to jeopardise long-term national capability.
