Hey ARC DPers with career interruptions- take a "print screen" of what you enter in your career interruptions boxes- seems like the ARC will never make this info roll over so do your future self a favour if it's a complicated set of dates 😭 (yes I have it saved elsewhere) @arc-tracker.bsky.social

I appreciate this. All the stuff you have to put at the end made an article here shorter than before!

This paper is not only collaborative internationally, between UNSW, VU and KIT, but also across Australia, including @pukalalab.bsky.social in Adelaide and @msidownunder.bsky.social at UoW Wollongong. Olivia @olivrusli.bsky.social really made the most of Aussie borders reopening to get her data!!!

A collaboration between researchers in Australia, The Netherlands & Germany, the paper elucidates the structure of glyphosate-metal complexes and its metabolic product aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) using a variety of advanced experimental and computational techniques. 🔗 doi.org/10.1039/D4CP...

Anouk and I first met at the IMSC meeting in Bremen in 2009-little did I know back then that some time later after a very successful @anzsms.bsky.social meeting in Wollongong we'd be collaborating ❤️ ...but I must admit it had crossed my mind in between those meetings! #teammassspec

"I knew there was another Rijs in my field using ion mobility mass spectrometry on the other side of the world." We chatted to Anouk about how this unique collaboration came about in the first of our Meet the Author interview series here: blogs.rsc.org/cp/2025/04/1... #chemsky

Australian & New Zealand Society for Mass Spectrometry@anzsms.bsky.social · 2y ago

Dr @njrijs.bsky.social from UNSW Sydney uses mass spectrometry and ion mobility to answer fundamental questions about chemical structure and reaction mechanisms. We're very much looking forward to hearing her speak at AUS-oMicS.

POV: Some journals need a peer review option with a button: "I am declining to review this article because it is out of my area of expertise. But also, the title and abstract are AI generated word salad." 🧪

My thoughts with all facing the CA wildfires. As an Australian, it is not lost on me that warnings about climate change included overlapping fire seasons, and now it appears we are seeing exactly that. Grampians fire being contained as the Cali and one started is surreal (& dystopian).

John Marsden was an author who defined my youth, the world has lost a great. I do not think I'd be the same without his books. Vale.
