This week, 450+ polar scientists from across Australia gathered at the Australian Antarctic Research Conference.

They discussed the urgent climate-related challenges the region is facing and how Antarctic science is vital for shaping policy efforts to safeguard our future.

📣 New PhD opportunity!

This PhD project, based at @QUT, will generate new knowledge on how to best conserve #Antarctica's unique #biodiversity through policy and planning. 🐧
