Antidepressant pollutants in waterways are destroying the social dynamics of fish, study finds
The Monash scientists who found that pharmaceutical pollutants in waterways altered reproductive behaviour, anxiety levels, activity, and antipredator responses of fish have now discovered for the first time that such toxicity is also having a disturbing impact on the social behaviour of fish.
World-class drone infrastructure to support research
Monash University has launched the Drone Discovery Platform for researchers.
Scientists call for improved approach to biodiversity targets on invasive species
A Monash-led international commentary on the harm caused by biological invasions has urged policy makers to develop conversation targets in a unified framework informed by new data integration methods developed in the last decade.
Monash Biologists and Physicists awarded ARC Future Fellowships
Two biologists and two physicists have collectively been awarded four Australian Research Council (ARC) Future Fellowships worth approximately $4 million.
Monash researchers enlist the Cloud to wipe out malaria
The Monash scientists who developed the small game-changing device that can rapidly screen blood in minutes to detect disease-causing pathogens have now confirmed the successful operation of a Cloud-based system based on spectroscopy.

#ScienceSunday - Present in humans since ancient times, tuberculosis remains a major global health burden. This bacterium infects one quarter of the world’s population and is now the leading cause of death from infectious disease worldwide. 😷 It has been known for years that Mycobacterium tuberculosis can use carbon monoxide, but nobody knew why... until now. 💡 Monash Uni researchers have found that it uses the gas as an energy supply 🔋⚡ to persist inside human lungs. This new discovery on the survival mechanism of mycobacteria could pave the way for new strategies to better fight communicable diseases. Discover more at the link in our bio! 🔝

#ScienceSunday - Did you know that rainfall can influence the breeding cycle of the iconic Purple-crowned fairy-wren? 🌧️🌧️🌧️ . An international Monash led study identified short-term rainfall as the only climatic factor regulating the timing of breeding in these endangered Australian birds. They found that even small amounts of rain triggered egg laying activity very rapidly, within days to weeks! 😱🤔 . Discover more via the link in our bio 🔝
