The ASFB/ASL joint congress was held in Darwin in July this year, with Nick M and Krys attending. Highlights included special sessions on Science Communication in the Public Sphere, co-organised by Krys, and an overall conference focus on indigenous engagement. Krys received the ASFB’s Gilbert P. Whitley Award (Senior) for an outstanding oral presentation on fish or fisheries for her talk on dispersal behaviour in desert gobies. Both Nick and Krys were appreciative of generous Society support via travel grants.
