As Chief Scientist of Western Australia, my mantra is 'Do Science, Translate Science, Communicate Science'. One outlet I use for communicating science is ScienceNetwork WA. This website provides easy access to information on current science issues in WA. As Chief Scientist, I have a keen interest in education and outreach to the community, and disseminating information to the public via ScienceNetwork WA keeps people informed and up-to-date.
