🐟What stories do you tell about your research? 🐟What stories are you listening to? 🐟Could you be listening differently? 🐟What stories do we need to tell together? Questions posed in a thought-provoking start to #ASFB2025 from Jess Melbourne-Thomas, on science storytelling in a challenging future.

For #NationalScienceWeek, I wanted to share my fave technology: the #VR headset! These enable an amazing immersive collaboration that opens up opportunities to go well #BeyondBeingThere 🙌 ❤️ #SuperStarsofSTEM #CSIROSuperStarsofSTEM #ScienceWeek #WomeninScience #ScienceAndTechnologyAustralia #CSIRO
Montage of images with a central focus on a VR headset, with ten different photos showing people in different immersive spaces - giving talks, running conferences, exploring worlds and interacting socially.

To celebrate #NationalScienceWeek I want to share my favourite aspect of science - combining my love of nature with my curiosity (my inner "but why?" 3yr old!). Seeking solutions for biodiversity, fundamental for a healthy planet and society. #CSIRO #SuperStarsofSTEM #ScienceAndTechnologyAustralia

For National Science Week I wanted to share my favourite two little scientists! Miss 9yr old was born on the inaugural International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Miss 7yr old was born while I was in the very first contingent of #SuperStarsofSTEM 🧑‍🔬 👩‍🔬 #CSIROSuperStarsofSTEM #ScienceWeek
