What a talented star! Paula Sobenko Hatum presents her PhD research - a great exemplar of merging marine science and statistical data science to address the urgent global issue of the impact of climate change, eg heatwaves, on seagrass resilience. So important for our world.

Distinguished Professor Kerrie Mengersen FAA (QUT)—an expert in Bayesian statistics—has had a remarkable 35-year post-PhD research career, skilfully navigating the intersection of statistics, machine learning, & artificial intelligence. #AcademyAwardees

Kerrie has collaborated across disciplines and consistently mentored and engaged with women in mathematical and applied sciences. Our 2024 Ruby Payne-Scott Medal recognises D/Prof Mengersen is at the forefront of developing statistical methodology driven by real-world challenges.

Yesterday I presented my final PhD seminar on the use of bayesian models to improve the spatial resolution of health data in Australia🎉Huge thanks to all those who supported me through this journey, particularly QUT Centre for Data Science and Cancer Council Queensland!

📢Just out - new research led by Paula Hatum, who recently completed her PhD with our Centre. The study, published in "Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems," examines the effects of marine heatwaves on seagrass ecosystems. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10…

Our 2024 #seagrass seed collection in North Wales is underway 🌱 We’re looking forward to a fortnight of fieldwork as part of the #SeagrassOceanRescue North Wales programme where we will be picking #seagrass seeds which will be planted as part of future #restoration work.

Our beloved Jax is facing a big journey ahead, and he needs your help! 🐾 Moving overseas means extra costs for his safe transport. Any support, big or small, would mean the world to us! Please share! ❤ gofund.me/987eb73e

Kerrie Mengersen amazed us all in her talk about the history of #BayesianStatistics and role of different #priors in the invited session this morning in Australasian Applied Statistics Conference 2024 #AASC2024

Excited to receive the Spotlight on Success Award from SEF HDR Student Society at QUT! A heartfelt thanks for recognizing even the smallest of our achievements. Every bit of encouragement counts! 🌟 #PhDSupport #QUTPride

Taking flight✈️! It's with mixed emotions that we say farewell to Paula Sobenko Hatum. Paula just graduated with her PhD and is now headed Ifremer 🌊 in France to work on a project using Bayesian networks to gain a better understanding of coral reef ecosystems. Take care, Paula!

I'm hiring another postdoc for my starting lab at VIB-KU Leuven Center for Microbiology to study microbial carbon fixation! We'll be deriving how enzymes in marine microbes inadvertently form stable molecules that are sequestered long term in the ocean. jobs.vib.be/j/93444/postdo…

I am recruiting PhD students! Are you concerned about the carbon footprint and environmental impact of statistical computing (including ML and GenAI)? If so, reach out to discuss doing a PhD in comp stats with me QUT School of Math in Sunny Queensland, Australia!

🌟 Exciting News! 🌿 Our study, "In hot water: Uncertainties in projecting marine heatwave impacts on seagrass meadows," is now live in PLOS ONE! 🌡️ 🎉 Thanks to QUT Centre for Data Science & our amazing team! 📖 Read here: doi.org/10.1371/journa… #ClimateChange #Seagrass #DataScience
