<p>During my undergraduate studies (2014-2016), I developed a strong passion for wildlife health which evolved into my fascination with the interconnection of the health of the environment, animals and people. I spent time volunteering on a number of projects, and was heavily involved as a volunteer field and lab assistant into the woylie decline as part of <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Amy_Northover">Dr. Amy Northover‘s</a> PhD. My interests expand to other areas of wildlife conservation, including the completion of an independent project on camera trapping of small mammals in Dryandra woodlands under the supervision of <a href="http://profiles.murdoch.edu.au/myprofile/peter-spencer/">A/Prof Peter Spencer</a> (Murdoch University) and <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Mark_Cowan5">Mark Cowan</a> (Parks and Wildlife, Western Australia).</p>
<p>My honours in Molecular Biology (2017) was titled ‘Profiling the bacterial microbiome of ticks that parasitise bandicoots in Australia’, under the supervision of <a href="http://profiles.murdoch.edu.au/myprofile/charlotte-oskam/">Dr. Charlotte Oksam</a> and <a href="http://profiles.murdoch.edu.au/myprofile/peter-irwin/">Prof. Peter Irwin,</a> and is available for download <a href="http://researchrepository.murdoch.edu.au/id/eprint/40003/">here</a>. During my project I identified a number of recently described and novel candidate tick-borne pathogens in ticks parasitsing bandicoots (Order: Peramelemorphia).</p>
<p>With no time to rest, I undertook a paid summer internship with <a href="https://www.pawsey.org.au/">Pawsey Supercomputing Centre</a> in November 2017, diving into all things coding and bioinformatics.</p>
<p>I started my PhD in 2018, as a continuation of the number of questions that arose from my honours project. Under the supervision of Dr. Charlotte Oksam, Prof. Peter Irwin, <a href="http://profiles.murdoch.edu.au/myprofile/una-ryan/">Prof. Una Ryan</a> and Prof. <a href="http://sydney.edu.au/science/people/peter.banks.php">Peter Banks</a> (University of Sydney). My project is titled ‘Ecology of tick-borne diseases in Australia – a one health approach’. I hope to uncover patterns in the lifecycle of ticks and their related microbes in Australian wildlife and investigate the overlap with cases of human tick-borne illnesses.</p>
