If it is not possible to make these parks available please update your website so others are not caught out.

Very disappointing especially considering there are so many empty spots opposite Baileys Corner. The only reason I came in was because of the option to park. It is difficult enough to plan events with a disability. I am very angry.

As someone fighting fibromyalgia I feel very strongly about advocating for #ME research. I wrote this story to try and help my fellow #invisibleillness warriors. I may not know what ME/CFS is like but I can empathise with what it is like to experience a misunderstood illness.

Experts estimate that 15 to 30 million people around the world are currently living with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Researchers at ANU hope a new biobank will help them develop a blood test for this severe, complex and misunderstood illness.

Wait- we're sexist towards birds now? Biologists have proven that most female songbirds sing, so why won’t we listen to them? science.anu.edu.au/news-events/ne…

If you’re a woman, have a child and a job, then you’ve probably been asked how you juggle your work with being a mum. So in the interest of gender equality, we talked to new dads about #parentalleave and how they manage parenthood AND a career in #STEM bit.ly/2UerZ0t

Antarctica is a big uncertainty when it comes to estimating global sea level rise due to #climatechange. Dr Adele Morrison (@anuearthscience) is using computer models to predict how Antarctic ice will melt. @ANU_Climate

Our latest story is all about vanquishing prejudice. I am so lucky to meet some amazing people at @ourANU, like @jessicahalem who encouraged me to be more curious, sensitive & open. Thanks @tabithacarvan & @jimmy_walsh85 for helping me shape this into something I am proud of.

If we lift up the #LGBTQ community, we can help everyone access better healthcare. @jessicahalem from @harvardmed & our Dean, Prof Russell Gruen discuss how creating inclusive workplaces can alleviate suffering.
