Thesis Bootcamp – Dr Liam Connell/Margo Lockhart
1. Thinking2. Writing - rip the bandaid off and just write3. Editing4. Polishing
Find a strong voice, express ideas confidently and with authority!
What are you contributing to your discipline? Intros, chapters, M&Ms, results, manuscripts (5,000
words). Time (and energy) Management

The Education and Training program has funds to support another 15 placements and we are looking for suitable hosts
Duration of the internship is 2-20 days and is arranged on a case-by-case basis preferably negotiated between the student and the host
The concept is to help the student explore career options in biosecurity with industry, policy and government agriculture agencies

Main SX Program
biosecurity built on science
CRC aims to create research impact for end-users Change in knowledge, skills or operations We are actively evaluating this impact which will be used to raise the
profile of our research- qualitatively (case studies and narrative) - quantitatively (economic impact)
These presentations will lead each session with a story on how the CRC research outputs will be adopted by the end user or next user
Research Impact Presentations
biosecurity built on science
1. What R&D activity do you think will result in the most beneficial change or impact to Plant Biosecurity (consider both short and long term)? Why?
2. What do you think are the future R&D priorities to strengthen Biosecurity in this theme?
Science Exchange Feedback
