Join Corey Tutt from Deadly Science, to learn about the knowledge and contributions made by Australia’s first scientists.
Australia’s First Nations Peoples hold the longest continuing culture on Earth; they are the first scientists and engineers, cultivating and passing on knowledge of forensic science, astronomy, land management, ecology, medicine, and beyond. In this webinar, Corey will showcase past and current groundbreaking Indigenous scientists, and show how the tradition is continuing in the Eureka award-winning charity Deadly Science, which he founded in 2018.
