  1. #UTas is looking to appoint a Research Associate in ice core science to work on the Million Year Ice Program. 3 years, fixed term. Seems to be open to international applicants.

  2. #introduction - I'm Anya Reading - good to meet/connect!

    Working on Antarctica (tectonics, ice sheet change, int. with ocean and atmosphere, inter disc. links). Focus on ground-based geophysics (esp. seismology) and compute. Professor of Geophysics at #UTAS #physics #comp_antarctic group, enabling/advocate for research, learning, #diversity in #stem.

  3. Surprising no-one, paying academics less for more insecure jobs teaching dumber material to increasingly checked-out students makes them no longer able or willing to properly quality control their output.

  4. Important reading by Nathan Bindoff, Australian #Antarctic Partnership Program, #UTAS

    “It looks as though the Southern #Ocean is shifting gear but we don’t yet know where it’s heading and what that means for us. That’s where our research comes in.”

  5. The month of #ScienceWeek begins! I've got an action-packed ~5 weeks coming up, full of #SciComm and #Space content all around lutruwita / #Tasmania! If you're keen to hang out, or see some great local #science content, check out some of the events below 👇

    🌘 Aug 4 - presenting at Beaker Streets "Young Tassie Scientists After Hours: Science for Kids (for Adults)" at #TMAG
    🤖 Aug 5 - watching @parisba argue that #AI is anything but #creative in "The Great Debate" at The Theatre Royal
    🍎 Aug 6 - speaking at the ABC Ockham's Razor event, LIVE at Willie Smith's Apple Shed down #Huonville
    🛰️ Aug 12 - speaking at TastroFest up in #Devonport, as part of a series of presentations running all next week with the support of Libraries Tasmania
    🏰 Aug 14 - mingling at the Government House launch of #ScienceWeek 2023, likely whispering in people's ears about my plans for a science centre out west...
    🚗 Aug 15-18 - travelling around Tas on the #YoungTassieScientists Southern road trip! This includes about a dozen schools plus at least one event with Children's University!
    🎙️ Aug 16 - giving the ECR address at Hobart's #ScienceMeetsParliament dinner, hosted by Minister for Science and Technology, Hon Madeleine Ogilvie MP
    🎪 Aug 19 - staffing a booth at Inspiring Tasmania's #FestivalOfBrightIdeas / #FoBI down at Salamanca
    🎓 Aug 22 - talking futures and opportunities as the occasional address at the afternoon session of Winter Graduations for #UTAS's College of Sciences and Engineering

    (Then I take a week off to catch up on normal work + sleep, and do 2 days of #SciComm training with #SuperstarsOfSTEM)

    🏫 Sep 1 - back at it, as a keynote for the 'It Takes a Spark!' #STEM #Education conference, alongside the fantastic Dr Lila Landowski!

    (Then maybe I get a break from speaking for a bit, at least until the Australian Space Research Conference comes to town a few weeks later 😬)

  10. whoever actually thinks that moving #utas into the city is a better option is either a restaurant owner or just deluded

  11. #Python session was baffling, frustrating and eventful. We won in the end. But to get there, we had to bash our heads against the wall. So much fun 😝 I love group #coding! Going to make it a regular thing for #PhD students at #UTAS.

  12. #introduction

    Hi, I am Tobias Stål, nice to meet you!

    I am a #geophysicist at the Australian Centre of Excellence in Antarctic Science #ACEAS based at the University of Tasmania #UTAS (math and physics). Presently, I am working on seismology and geothermal heat, but my background is in #geology, particularly #sedimentology and #carbonates.

    I like music, old boats, well-written code (usually not by me) and to drink beer and coffee. I am learning linguistics.
