Communications and Engagement

ANZSCDB Communications and Engagement Officers work with ANZSCDB State Representatives, Executive, and Diversity & Inclusion officer to source, curate and publish content for the ANZSCDB newsletter, email list and social media. We aim to identify and promote topics of interest to the society, seek and distribute member news, and establish pathways for advocacy and policy development for the fields of cell biology and developmental biology. Please get in touch with article ideas, to help promote your event, or to discuss how ANZSCDB can advocate for issues relevant to you.
