Are you teaching or studying #VCE #English in #Australia, or are you a #linguistics student?

Then Dr Isabelle Burke from #Monash would like you to take a short survey about variation in #grammar in #AustralianEnglish #AusE

Also, a somewhat non-standard breed of dog came for a visit.

Yes, I **am** enjoying #Monash's #library, why do you ask 😄

Any urbanists in #Monash #Melbourne #Australia out there?
DM me.
I'm curious to know what's happening on the ground.

Irritable bowel syndrome (#IBS) and other #digestive disorders and symptoms can keep us from obtaining proper nutrition.

Thankfully, companies such as FODMAP Foods LLC are creating products to help those of us with sensitive digestive tracts, and the products are not only #gut friendly and #Monash University lab tested and certified as #lowfodmap , but they are delicious as well!

Hi Mastodon!

I'm a computer scientist working on the #MiniZinc modelling language. The perfect way to model your #optimization / #orms problems. (At least if you you were to ask me).

As an #OPTIMA research fellow at #Monash University, I generally love research into programming languages & combinatorial optimisation methods.

When I don't have anything to say about work, you may find me posting about my hobbies, such as music, birds, cycling, and cricket, instead.

Ein aust. Forschungsteam hat ein neues **Lithium-Schwefel-Batteriedesign** entwickelt, das
* weniger Lithium benötigt,
* mehr Energie pro Volumeneinheit hat,
* länger hält und
* zum halben Preis der vorherrschenden Lithium-Ionen-Technologie hergestellt werden kann

I was at the August 1976 anti-Fraser demo at Monash. Since then I've often looked at photos of the event, but today I saw a photo which I'm pretty sure included me! It's impossible to be certain, but several contemporaries have agreed its me. BTW, he was barricaded into a toilet. They claim it was an engineer's office, but also say they had to squeeze him out of a small window. An engineer with only a window that small in his office?

Posting on behalf of Linda Przhedetsky at #UTS:

Are you a #researcher who is wondering how to communicate your findings and make an #impact

Join Linda Przhedetsky, UTS (https://profiles.uts.edu.au/Linda.Przhedetsky) and Steph Slack, #Monash (https://au.linkedin.com/in/stephslack) for a free, 2hr session that's open to anyone interested in learning about translating research into a range of policy and advocacy contributions.

We'll cover:
- What is a policy contribution?
- Which aspects of research could influence policy? (we'll demystify the policy process!)
- Who should you share your research with?
- How can you identify, connect, and collaborate with allies in your field?
- What are the most effective ways to make a difference?

By the end of this workshop, you'll have:
- An understanding of how policy is made
- Practical next steps for translating your research into policy and advocacy contributions
- An understanding of how to design effective key messages
- Resources for developing your skills further

This Zoom workshop will be held on Tuesday November 14th on Zoom, 2-4pm AEDT.

Please share this with anyone who might be interested!

Next was a great talk by Anita Sarma on engineering inclusivity in software products at #Monash Information Technology. I loved the framing here of "inclusivity bugs" with the GenderMag system introduced here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-BXdmWvUV8 (6/10) #inclusion #HCI #accessibility

First was an excellent talk by Colin Camerer on individual behavior and game theory at #Monash Business School. Camerer casts a wide net, going over experiments in economic games, #neuroscience and #economics, and even chimpanzee research! Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pyYjvqhf2o (2/6)

#papermeme time!
Bo's new paper describes how multidimensional transient kinetic sweeps from automated continuous flow screening are not only efficient but also incredibly fast. Just hot off the press in Angewandte:
