A bold plan to supercharge immune cell ‘spies’ to better seek out and kill cancer cells has received a $17 million funding boost from the Australian Government. The WEHI-led project focuses on dendritic or ‘James Bond’ cells, which play a pivotal role in intelligence-gathering for our immune system, and aims to equip them with enhanced … Continued

Key points Florey study tackles a ‘missing piece of the puzzle’ in brain cancer research by investigating the influence of cancer cells on the brain. Characterised by their aggressiveness, different cancer grades differentially influence brain cells, with highly aggressive cancer leading to greater neural excitability. Findings further show that this enhanced neural activity directly drives increased brain cancer growth. This study … Continued

By 2100 Australian and global coral reef communities will be slow to recover, less complex, and dominated by fleshy algae, as high carbon dioxide changes ocean chemistry. An international study published today in Communications Biology has used unique coral reefs in Papua New Guinea to determine the likely impact of ocean acidification on coral reefs in the … Continued

The ambitious trial to reintroduce native marsupial species into Sturt National Park is on track, say Wild Deserts conservationists. Western quolls, bilbies and golden bandicoots are slowly taking back a ‘low-cat’ area of the desert – the massive Wild Training Zone of more than 100km2 in Sturt National Park in NSW. The resurgence of … Continued
