Research School of Biology
The ANU Research School of Biology (RSB) carries out research in a wide range of biological and biomedical sciences and oversees the University's Biology curriculum, with a diverse offering of courses across both undergraduate and graduate degrees.
Researchers have uncovered a mechanism that helps plants continue photosynthesising under extreme heat and dry air conditions.
Three Australian National University (ANU) scientists have been recognised for their extraordinary work by being elected Fellows of the Australian Academy of Science.
Research led by The Australian National University (ANU) has revealed that wild sulphur-crested cockatoos learn what foods are safe to eat by watching each other — a discovery that helps explain how the species thrives in rapidly changing urban environments.
PS PhD Exit Seminar: The interaction between photorespiration and plant immunity
For decades, photorespiration was regarded largely as a wasteful process that lowers photosynthetic efficiency. However, growing evidence points to an additional role in plant defence.
E&E Seminar Series: Time Flies -The Anthropogenic Interactions and Evolutionary History of the Australian Bush Fly (Musca vetustissima)
The Australian bush fly (Musca vetustissima) is an ecologically important species whose interactions with human-modified environments may influence its population dynamics and microbial associations.
