Curious about how coral larvae respond to moving substrate? Check out our recent paper in Coral Reefs: rdcu.be/dSp6I Turns out corals can settle on constantly moving substrate & routinely settle on loose rubble! #ACRRI Australian Institute of Marine Science BHP Cathie Page Christine Giuliano


This has been one of the best collaborations & outcomes of the Woppaburra Coral Project: the start of a culturally safe biobanking protocol for corals. Huge thanks to the Woppaburra TUMRA & Taronga Zoo for paving the way! Australian Institute of Marine Science BHP shorturl.at/PqHJZ

Ecstatic to share that I will be starting a 4y position with Shark Research Foundation as a Research Scientist ! I will be embedded in project BioTrack, an initiative led by Dr. Neil Hammerschlag that aims to assess biodiversity hotspots of Marine Megafauna🦈🐋🐟 Can’t wait to get started !



Just returned from another great trip at Ashmore Reef (NW Aus) where we retrieved more than 20 oceanographic instruments and collected the first ever oceanographic measurements of waves, currents and water levels across the reef 🪸 Australian Institute of Marine Science Australian Marine Parks
